This is part 2 of my interview with Jude Kriwald and goes into detail on his most recent bicycle adventure through West Africa. Jude spent 3 months touring off the beaten path in West Africa, a tour which came over ten years since his last big adventure where he cycled from England to India. Jude had been transfixed on the notion of what it would be like to be completely in the middle of a jungle in Liberia and this indeed was the best way to find out.
He recalled some captivating details from this journey, from camping at the base of a huge waterfall, to spending 7 days deep in the Liberian Jungle - 3 of those totally alone barely able to travel more than 10 kms a day.
If you've missed out on Part 1 of Jude's adventures you can check out that episode here
