About The Author
Beau Miles
You may have heard of Beau before for the challenges he’s set himself like walking 90km to work. He makes videos of his adventures doing things the rest of us wouldn’t, like when he attempted to paddle around from one side of Africa to the other; when he ran over 650km of the Australian Alpine Walking Track; and going around collecting scrap wood to make his own junk paddle (good to know in case you get stuck up a creek).
