We can’t think of a group that’s less keen to be cooped up indoors than the We Are Explorers audience. So to help you guys cope, we’re asking you to share your Home Grown Adventures!

 

What’s a Home Grown Adventure? It’s just like a normal adventure, but it’s confined to your home.

We’re talking kitchen cabinet rock climbing, watching surf films in the bath, running a marathon around your house (if you’ve got a backyard you’re allowed to use it!) or camping out on the balcony. Even a campfire cook up on the lawn is fair game!

The COVID-19 lockdown has already bred some pretty incredible adventures but they’ve mostly had an international flavour.

As Australia settles into a strange, localised couple of months, we want you guys to share how you’re getting your adventure fix, in a uniquely Aussie way.

We’re a bunch of kooks, five minutes on TikTok* will tell ya that much.

We’ll choose our 3 favourites and if you’re one of them, we’ll send you a merch pack for being the most hilarious, gnarly or artistic Explorer out there.
