Podcast: Journey on the Wild Coast – Maintaining Health and Preventing Injury during Months of Outdoor Living and Travel

I'm sorry, but I was not impressed AT ALL by the interviewer's style or the content she decided to focus on! These people are obviously on a highly adventurous trip, and yet the interviewer seemed to be scared by their endeavors most of the time!

The questions that the interviewer posed really didn't lead to interesting or relevant information for people planning similar trips – I mean, who cares what kind of toothpaste they took or how often they floss?!!! Here are some things I would have liked to know: details of their nutrition and hydration systems, and how to keep them light, and efficient, perhaps any first aid qualifications and experience either of them has…
