In today's podcast, I chat with Andrew & Emma Groves from Misc. Adventures on choosing the road less travelled to live a life closer to nature.

They now live in the Lake District where they work in the woods, make things, take photos and enjoy adventures big and small in the surrounding mountains, lakes and valleys with their young son, Benji.

For 11 years they lived in a small barn in the woods in Sussex where they discovered a new way of living and developed a deeper relationship with Nature that inspires all of the many strands of the work they do. 

In this episode we delve into:

- What first inspired them to leave behind their jobs to set up in the woods
- Challenges they're faced along the way
- Benefits of letting go of excessive material possessions and enjoying the simpler things in life 
- Advantages of raising a child closer to nature 
- Converting and touring in a van
- Products they are developing and their plans for the future
- Plus plenty more!

Ep 78: Andrew & Emma Groves from Misc. Adventures on getting back to our roots

In this episode, I share what this new podcast is all about. 

Every couple of weeks I'll be sharing people's inspiring and uplifting stories from around the world. I believe there's so much good happening right now on the planet, which isn't getting nearly enough attention it deserves – I hope by sharing these people's stories it'll help inspire listeners to go out there and show more of what they are made of and do their own bit of good in the world.

I've got interviews lined up with a woman who is running a homeless organisation, an inspiring owner of a green energy company, a healthy food start-up entrepreneur, as well as the editor of a really uplifting magazine.

Each episode I'll be sitting down with them over a brew and delving into what makes them tick, the journey they've gone on and share plenty of nuggets of wisdom along the way.
