Last summer, Belgian adventurer Louis-Philippe Loncke set out on a kayak expedition around his home country. At the time, he had very little paddling experience at all, but he wanted to explore the historic waterways of Belgium and document his journey, so he spent a few hours getting accustomed to his SeabirdDesigns H2O boat, and simply set off. The video below captures moments from that expedition, which looks like it was an amazing experience.
The Belgikayak expedition is a great reminder that we can find adventure right in our own backyard and that we don’t always have travel to the far reaches of the planet to get our fix. Great stuff.
