| 0:25.3 | And what we're going to talk about is just how he does adventures and fits it into work and how they both |
| 0:30.3 | are integrated and how it's just nothing he ever expected he'd be doing. And that's what you're going to hear from a lot of folks that do adventure |
| 0:37.7 | for a living, or not adventurers, but live this in this mindset. They end up doing something |
