Five Turning Points
All of us have what I call 'turning points' in our lives. These are events that have ultimately shaped who we are today.
This podcast explores leaders and people of influence as to what were five turning points that shaped who they are today.
'Turning points' could be people met along the way, critical events in one's life such as births, marriages, deaths, paths taken that were less travelled.
Come and join me on this great adventure!
Five Turning Points
Geoff Manchester and the Beginnings of Intrepid Travel
Back in the 80's, a few of Geoff Manchester's mates hatched a plan to buy an old council bus, completely redo it, place it on a cargo ship bound for London, then head off for 6 months through Africa. Madness! This madness eventually led to the now global travel business Intrepid. Geoff has rightly suggested that in our material world people look forward more to experiences as gifts, experiences that offer a smorgasbord of cultures, people and exciting ventures.
Geoff reflects on the Five Turning Points that have shape what has been an incredible life with humble beginnings in the Gippsland area of Victoria.
