#29: Shots of Adventure or the joy of surfing in ice cold water – with Chris Burkard

Chris Burkard, born in 1986, is many things: he is an adventurer,
photographer, creative director, speaker, author, father,
husband, surfer, certified yoga instructor ... and first and
foremost, a storyteller. He travels much of the year to explore
the most remote places on earth, capturing stories there to
inspire people to rethink their relationship with nature. In this
way, he seeks to advocate for the preservation of wild places all
over the world.


 


Initially, he was one of the most sought-after surf photographers
in the world: his assignments took him to tropical paradises from
the Caribbean to the South Pacific. Later, he specialised
particularly in photographing cold places. Today, he is one of
the most successful and popular adventure and outdoor
photographers – he has 3.7 million followers on Instagram alone.


 


In this Episode, he talks about how his career unfolded, what
draws him to cold and rather inhospitable places, how we can
travel “well” – and much more!
