What do you do when you are not on the river?

Best River story? Favourite rafting trips?
When opportunity met occasion, adversity met ambition and everyone was willing (even if not ready), the adventure was on. This happens for many if not most on expedition rafting trips. And I for one try to be appreciative of the journey. That being said…. when language becomes the barrier, the story becomes a bit more technical (or complicated)
Anywhere still on the rafting ‘bucket list’?
The world is your oyster!
What will you do when you grow up?
Become a better version of my current self.
Tell us something that people may not know about you?
I am one of six siblings and have over 60 first cousins. My ‘river family’ is a mere extension of this.
