1 PodCast par semaine ;)Week-End Rando & Bivouac : https://lebanquierrandonneur.fr/agenda/Passionné de randonnée qui a fait de son rêve une réalité. C'est à dire partir traverser l'Europe à pied, soit 15 000 km, en solo et en autonomie complète.Mais il n'en a pas toujours été ainsi. Mes 1ère randos sur plusieurs jours furent un déclic dans ma vie. J'ai pris un pied énorme à vivre au contact de la nature jour et nuit, cependant je me suis blessé à porté un sac toujours trop lourd (24kg) en voulant faire des étapes beaucoup trop longues pour mon niveau... en fait, j'ai fait toutes les conneries de débutantspossibles et imaginables. Mes pieds, mes chevilles, mes genoux et mon dos s'en souviennent, et déjà à l'époque je trouvais dommage de ne pas avoir accès à des conseils simples et claires.Pendant 7 ans, j'ai été un banquier vissé sur sa chaise les yeux collé à un écran en attendant... le week-end pour partir marcher et s'oxygéner ! En 2017, je démissionne, commence mon activité de coach en trek et pars marcher 5 000 km pendant 6 mois pour fêter çà.Depuis j'ai marché 15 000 km sur les sentiers, dans des paysages merveilleux et surtout : sans me blesser ni réveiller de blessures... more

My upbringing deep in the Appalachian woods gave me intimacy and love for the backcountry. The Practical Woodsman is a way for me to share that love with you, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. While I enjoy viewing other channels related to this sort of thing, much of it is impractical for any real scenario in the wilderness, and therefore pointless. The Practical Woodsman's focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.
