“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by
the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.
Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
If you haven’t already done this with your life, it’s never too late to
begin. At Outer Edge, we pride ourselves on our love of adventure,
of the unknown and of doing and seeing things others might have
never imagined possible.
Our contributors are go-getters. They are the people who get out of
their comfort zone and step into the wide world of possibility. They
achieve, they succeed, they fail, they try again.
There truly is no better feeling than knowing you have achieved
something amazing. Exploring the world. Living your dreams.
Discovering new places and people.
Some of the highlights of my own exciting life have included camping
in the wilds of the Okavango Delta in Botswana, where we would
listen to the elephants and hippos crossing by in waters just metres
away (and know crocodiles were in those same waters, lurking
and waiting); skydiving over the alps in Austria; climbing Dune 45
in Namibia at sunrise; flying a plane over Brisbane and completing
the very slippery journey to the top of the Ice Cap in Greenland at
Kangerlussuaq where you can see nothing but snow for miles. Just
to name a few!
In 2 months time, Charles and the Polar Challenge team are heading
off on their own adventure to Antarctica – to create new world
records, gather data and make dreams come true. We’re all getting
very excited here and hope to pass off some of that excitement to
you through Edition 42.
You only get one chance at life. You can spend it thinking about all
the things you could be doing out there in the big bad world – or you
could be getting out there and living it! The choice is yours.
“You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the
courage to lose sight of the shore.” ~ Andre Gide
Edition 42 is our Adventurers Edition and we want nothing more than
to inspire you to get out there – explore, dream and discover!
