Welcome to episode 48 of Explore Magazine's "Live the Adventure" Podcast.
 We're continuing our series of getting behind the scenes with the amazing writers and photographers of Explore Magazine.
Today, we're talking to writer Sylvia Dekker. Sylvia's been writing for Explore for about five years—with features in both print and online. She's even been on the cover of the magazine herself!
But why does she do it? Why does she put herself out there and pursue this career? We're digging deep to uncover her adventure passions, how she blends that into her career and we're even digging up a whole bunch of tips for getting kids outdoors and into nature.
Stay tuned for Sylvia Dekker, freelance writer!

Lots to talk about with Andrew Findlay!

To help kickoff our 45th anniversary celebrations—because Explore was founded in 1981—we're starting a brand-new interview series within Explore's Podcast!
Along with the long-form interviews you've come to expect, we're going to be speaking with members of Explore's own community: writers, photographers, illustrators and more! For this series, we'll spend 20 minutes or so chatting with the fascinating storytellers and artists who make our website and magazine so special.
We're beginning this series with Will Lambert, adventure photographer. Will shot the cover of our Winter 2025 issue—so we'll go behind the scenes on that. Plus, he'll be speaking about an incredible trip he took to one of Canada's most breathtaking backcountry trails.
Stay tuned for that and more with Will Lambert, on Explore's Podcast!

We have a special episode of the Explore Podcast today.
If you've followed our social media, magazine or website content you may have seen the clothing and merchandise collaboration we launched with Kevin Callan—a.k.a. "The Happy Camper"—last fall.
And if you saw that, you likely noticed that it benefitted an organization called "Camp Outlook."
Camp Outlook is a registered Ontario charity based in Kingston, Ontario, which encourages young people from 13 to 17 years old to develop their inner strength, self-worth and capacity to succeed by giving them the opportunity to participate in extended backcountry canoe expeditions free of charge.
And today, I'm chatting with Camp Outlook Board of Directors member Greg Grandsen to learn even more about this life-changing organization, how kids benefit from their camps and how you can get involved!
Stay tuned for Greg Grandsen of Camp Outlook.
