Ep 78: Andrew & Emma Groves from Misc. Adventures on getting back to our roots

In today's podcast, I chat with Andrew & Emma Groves from Misc. Adventures on choosing the road less travelled to live a life closer to nature. They now live in the Lake District where they work in the woods, make things, take photos and enjoy adventures big and small in the surrounding mountains, lakes and valleys with their young son, Benji. For 11 years they lived in a small barn in the woods in Sussex where they discovered a new way of living and developed a deeper relationship with Nature that inspires all of the many strands of the work they do. In this episode we delve into: - What first inspired them to leave behind their jobs to set up in the woods - Challenges they're faced along the way - Benefits of letting go of excessive material possessions and enjoying the simpler things in life
 - Advantages of raising a child closer to nature
 - Converting and touring in a van - Products they are developing and their plans for the future - Plus plenty more!
