Greetings /out/,
I am a 23 y/o male that lived a mostly sheltered life and after going /out/ with some friends, I discovered a passion about anything related to outdoors. I went fishing, hiking, sailing, canoeing, cut down some dead trees and it truly sparked within me. I have a lot of free time because of my schedule and I was wondering...how to become an adventurer like pic related? The kind of things you see in National Geographic/ Are there some courses or events I should take? I already have my scuba diving, climbing and hunting license...what else should I do/buy?
I just seems limitless and I am overwhelmed by the amount of things you can do. I am living in Quebec by the way.
>climbing license

Just go outside man there's not much to it. What boats in your picture?

Is that a pic you've taken?
Don't know what's the official definition of an adventurer, or what kind of stories they have on NG.
But I'd say, while you can do all the above you'll need to choose one or two of them as your main focus. Better start with one.
Start going and doing the common routes of that sport, you'll meet people along the way and hear recommendations from other places they've been. Go to some of these places.
Slowly do harder and harder routes.
At some point (maybe) you'll be good enough to look at the map/cliff/consult with locals/whatever and make try to make your own routes, new routes, easy ones.
Slowly increase in difficulty.
Along the way, after you choose a focus you'll get into the community of that sport, you'll be able to get better advice from them.
I imagine it's something like that, Most of the /out/ stories that make it to normie media is either about some brave rescue from a calamity that happened on the way, some speed... something done very quickly, or outright stupid life risking things like free climbing.
But I'm not big on trad media.
Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get something along the lines of a Wilderness First Responder / Wilderness First Aid certification.

>How to become an adventurer?
Get a sword and armor, then check bars for mysterious hooded man.
If possible, bring that nerdy guy along.

Learn to fly? Skydive? Spend a year alone in the wilderness?
If you have the money and the time, you can literally do anything.

Remember that all the gear in the world cannot make up for role play.
