Adventurer Jelle Veyt on getting caught in an avalanche on Everest, lessons learned from living on the streets for two years, and how death can be a big motivator.
Jelle is a professional adventurer. He is now on a quest to cycle/row to the highest mountains on every continent and climb them.
This was a very personal interview, and it some of the most practical insights in a short amount of time I have ever encountered on: - being grateful for food and shelter - being ready to die, but loving to live - why you make yourself unhappy - how to stop living like a zombie - why it’s good to cry like a baby - how everything is temporary, including feeling bad - how and when to finally start living your dream - most importantly: don’t hold your farts, let them go!
