Bulgaria Revisit

Join Ben as he revisits global nomads Miriam and Peter in the vast forests of the Rhodope Mountains in Bulgaria. In 2016, the couple walked the length of New Zealand and Ben then found them on an intrepid journey across South-Eastern Europe. He joined them as they left one camp to hike to another, their entire world in their backpacks, foraging and hunting as they went, sometimes travelling up to 25km a day. He found out how these former teachers stripped away all complications of modern life, and how the couple, with their 30-year age gap, survived and thrived together to face the challenges of the wild. When he left them, their plan was to walk across Australia. Now, four years later, he finds them back in Bulgaria, but living in an off-grid cottage. He discovers that disaster struck while they were walking Australia and the couple had to radically change their life. Peter suffered acute kidney failure and was given a 2% chance of survival. A four-year journey has seen him make an almost miraculous recovery and the couple have adapted to their new lives as "slomads": still travelling, but with the security of rest and recuperation in their cottage with their beloved new pets. The couple reveal they have started hosting philosophy and wilderness survival courses staying faithful to their wild "life less ordinary".
