Dave Cornthwaite
Amongst other things he has paddleboarded the length of the Mississippi, skateboarded across Australia, swum 1001 miles, written three books, stayed awake for 72 hours in a row without turning crazy, and for years has tried in vain to get Nutella to sponsor his adventures. But will he give up? Never!
Dave has over 6 years of experience in expedition logistics, worldwide travel, survival, sponsorship hunting and forging a sustainable career in adventure.
Dave is more than happy to offer advice and assistance to anyone seeking it. This can sometimes be time-consuming though, so please think about what you’re asking. ‘Can you please send some information about this or that’ is too open-ended. Keep questions as specific as you possibly can.
Finally, Dave is in a position to help budding adventurers because of years of experience. This hasn’t come cheap, so although he’ll reply to every email we do ask that if you appreciate his advice, you consider doing one of the following:
1) Buy something on Dave’s Amazon Wishlist
2) Make a donation to CoppaFeel! or the AV Foundation
3) Buy Dave a virtual beer
Finally, through Expedition1000 Dave is aiming to raise £1,000,000 for his selected charities. One way to do this is to have a more hands-on approach in helping to set up others’ expeditions, so long as they’re fundraising for his charities.
