Rowing across all oceans & how to enjoy solitude - Erden Eruç

Art of Adventuring: Inside the minds of inspiring explorers - A podcast by World Explorers Collective - Sundays

One day Erden stood in front of a map and drew a line with his finger. A line from the United States where he lived across the Pacific, across Asia and Europe all the way to Turkey - his home country. He then kept drawing and made it a circle reaching the United States again. Today Erden holds over 15 World Records, many of them due to his incredible achievement to follow this line using human power only. That's why his biggest record stands taller than all - The first to solo circumnavigate the planet using only human power. Another one of these records is most days spent alone at sea. Over 1000 days and counting Erden has spent completely alone in a kayak on the oceans. How can one push themselves to so extreme limits? How do you keep going when all is against you? And how can you cope with being alone, at sea?
