Sidetracked Magazine features a collection of personal stories of adventure travel, journeys and expeditions. The concept is simple: to capture the emotion and experience of adventures and expeditions throughout the world… and to inspire.
Issues 15 uncovers the beautiful hardship of adventure. We’re not designed to spend our lives nesting and resting. However comfortable we may be in our homes, on our sofas, it’s when we leave our sanctuary that adventure begins. In facing the challenges needed to reach our destination, armed with both spirit and resilience, we can begin to feel the depth and complexity life has to offer.
This issue travels back to 1977 on a school climbing trip to Afghanistan, freedive under the ice in Canada and seek out paradise via packraft in Mexico. It looks at the harsh and devastating consequences when expeditions don’t go to plan and the immeasurable rewards when they do.
And, through kayaking through the Balkans and kite-surfing an arid dam in Cape Town, they look at how adventure, photography and art can make significant progress towards highlighting global political and cultural issues and protecting Earth’s natural places.
