About Isaac Thorn

"Originally from England, I grew up enjoying summer breaks at my grandparents' home on the Aegean coast of Turkey. A couple months of the year, spending days on end out and about exploring new places. When I left high school at 19, I set off from Turkey with an old bike and some basic camping equipment, hungry for adventure but broke as hell. 10 months later I rolled into Bangkok, 10,000 miles cycled and my eyes widened to the world. Since returning to the UK for my studies I’ve not slowed down, converting and living in a Sprinter van and recently completing a 20,000 mile overland trip from England to Ghana and back."
