    Sneaking through the tent flap - with Raynor Winn

    In the last of this mini series of catch up interviews, Charlotte speaks to author of The Salt Path, Raynor Winn. They discuss how we adjust from macro living to the micro, and why people who sneak through the back of tents of talks at festivals are probably the best kind of people.

    It’s so good to hear you
