Description
Arved Fuchs is a famous German adventurer. He has travelled the world - especially the oceans - for more than 45 years and he does this in a very powerful way. He is the first person to reach the North Pole and the South Pole by foot within one year. He rounded Cape Horn in a folding boat and crossed Greenland with sledge dogs in 70 days. Most of his expeditions have taken place either in the Arctic or Antarctic or on board his 92-year-old fishing vessel DAGMAR AAEN. The footage of one of these expeditions just went viral on TikTok. In this podcast, Arved regularly shares his adventures on board Dagmar Aaen. www.arved-fuchs.de. www.baerbel-fening.de

It was a different story for some of the new crew members as they sailed through the rough and moody North Sea, retreating to their bunks and eating little, Arved Fuchs tells us in the current podcast e...
