What is an Adventurer?

I would say it is someone fairly fearless to begin with. However, unless you are also someone with common sense, good coordination, intuitive with good senses and reflexes it might be unlikely that you live to see 30.

I would say I was sort of an adventurer between birth and about age 26 when my first son was born. At that point I gave up things like Rock Climbing with 1000 foot or more exposures and other more dangerous things so my son would have me alive while he was growing up. I would say the main reason I'm alive today is that I had to be to take care of my son and then my other children I had along the way. Otherwise, likely I would have died by 30 too just being who I naturally am.

I still did and do periodically very adventurous things but I'm much more controlled about these sorts of things than I was between zero and 26. I think my heredity drove me to be like this along with having had whooping cough and childhood epilepsy. Basically, these things made me fearless in a certain sort of maybe kind of crazy way. Jumping off of houses was one of the things I liked to do as a child. I didn't learn until my early 40s that I had hundreds of micro fractures in my feet that were now healed from doing this. It made me have to stop jogging in my early 40s which wasn't good for my health because it was the main way I had stayed trim and buff from about age 12 to age 40. So, I had run about 1 to 5 miles a day or every few days since I was about 12 years old until 40. I have replaced jogging for the most part by walking every day and bicycling which creates less impact on one's feet.

I still travel all over the world with my family whenever I can get us all organized to do that sort of thing together. It's really fun to learn more about the world with one's family.
