Guest Nicolai Bangsgaard is a Danish Anthropologist who has spent almost two decades discovering the world by human powered travel. In 2006, he set out on a long distance bicycle tour that would span four years, taking him across six continents, pedalling his way through 53 countries with a total distance of 62,000km. But that by no means was the end of his adventures and since then he has kept exploring the world through slow travel.
I spoke with Nicolai when he had just arrived in Perth to undertaken leg 2 of his latest challenge which he calls the Global Triathlon. Leg 1 involved a 20,000km cycle from Denmark to Singapore. Leg 2 will see Nicolai traverse Australia and New Zealand on a Kick Scooter. For leg 3 he will be running across the US before returning back to two wheels in Portugal and cycling back to his home in Denmark.
I really enjoyed hearing Nicolai share his vast experiences and insights from the adventures he has undertaken so far. I was able to understand his motivations to keep exploring the world in this manner and to also learn more about his current challenge too.
