A beautiful collection of stories and images from people who have found ways to experience and embrace the outdoors on their own terms. Some have sold their belongings and lived in a van, trekked through the Himalayas or biked across continents. Others simply cleaned up a beach, learned how to forage or spent a night alone in the woods. All found that their experiences in nature transformed their lives and freed them, even if only briefly, from their everyday worries, distractions and preoccupations.
