Captivated by wild places and passionate about their preservation, writer Catherine Lawson runs wildtravelstory.com, a website dedicated to inspiring travellers to travel deeper, journey further and tackle adventures they never thought possible.
Road testing every hike, cycle tour, paddling trip and sailing voyage are photographer David Bristow and the couple’s seven-year-old daughter Maya, who became an overlander at four weeks of age and is world-schooled along the way.
Catherine lists trekking with wild orangutans in Kalimantan and snorkelling off Flores with manta rays as this year’s top adventures, and has set her sights on an African safari before the year is out.
