Join Cyrus Croft and Peter van Stralen as they reflect on reaching the end of the first phase of their journey—and the miles that have shaped it so far.

For Peter, life on the road started early, growing up immersed in the Epic Family Road Trip, where global travel wasn’t just an idea—it was a way of life. For Cyrus, expedition-style adventure was part of his upbringing, taking him across the world and instilling a deep drive to explore beyond the familiar.

Now, the two come together to take on an ambitious goal: driving vertically around the world. In this episode, they share what it means to carry forward a legacy of adventure, the realities of life on the road as young explorers, and why this journey is only the beginning.
