No woodworking or crafts in this post just some inspirational people living lives to the full, believing in what they do and going their own way. Maybe taking the road less travelled.
First up Lloyd Kahn, I first came across his inspirational book “Shelter” 20 or more years ago. What a treat to find him on the internet, he took up skateboarding at 65, that’s the kind of guy he is. “You should have some fun every day”

And Lloyd has a fantastic eclectic blog
Next up “if I only scrape a living at least it’s a living worth scraping”

and last one, an old one I may have posted a few years ago but worth seeing again, Danny MacAskill. A mate of mine taught him unicycle when he was still at school, his teachers told him he was wasting his time on bikes.

Just what i needed in my life right now, as i sit in front of my screen. Thanks for posting them, they've given me things to explore further… and that's what it's all about, right?
If you want more like this, watch some of the talks given at Do Lectures. http://dolectures.com/I went there in 2009 and saw some incredible talks. I also met the woman I'm marrying in a couple of weeks. The guy who did that Dark Side Of The Lens video spoke there last year. Have a good weekend!George.
Thanks George, lots to explore! and congratulations, have a wonderful wedding day!
Thanks for sharing these. Its the little things like this that give the needed kick every once in a while to get on living 🙂
