Huw Kingston at TEDx Athens
Message in a Bottle
In June 2018 Huw gave a TED talk at TEDx Athens in the magnificent new Greek National Opera House.
It took a while to go up due to some argy bargy music licensing stuff. All to do with his use of The Police song of the same name at the start. In the end some mundane music has been dubbed over.
Massive thanks again to the all legends at TEDxAthens for the invite and for putting on a superb show.
Mediterranean
A year around a charmed and troubled sea
Huw Kingston’s inspiring and entertaining tale of his 12 month, 13,000km journey around the Mediterranean Sea by sea kayak, foot, ocean rowboat and bike.
His journey was one of physicality and endurance through the cultures, land and seascapes of 17 countries in North Africa and Europe. But above all it was a story of humanity and the power of human kindness in a region torn by economic malaise and increasing conflict.
