Episode One: The Road to Everest Base Camp with Matthew Sortino

In the first episode of I Don't Even Like Camping: An Adventure for the Everyday Explore. I sit down with my cousin to relive our unforgettable 21-day trek to Everest Base Camp. From struggling up the brutal ascent of Gokyo Ri to witnessing the most breathtaking sunrise over the Himalayas, this journey pushed us to our absolute limits—both physically and emotionally. We share the highs, the lows, and the moments we wanted to quit, but also the magic of Nepal, the kindness of the people, and the sheer awe of standing among the world's highest peaks. It was the hardest thing we've ever done—but also one of the most incredible experiences of our lives.

I Don't Even Like Camping: The Podcast - Pilot

Welcome to my podcast, I Don’t Even Like Camping: An Adventure for the Everyday Explorer by Clara Santaera My podcast, I Don’t Even Like Camping: An Adventure for the Everyday Explorer, is all about inspiring everyday people to bring more adventure into their lives. Drawing from my own travel experiences—like an intense 21-day trek to Everest Base Camp or a crazy 35 day pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago.. and many more —I hope to encourage listeners to step out of their comfort zones, connect with nature, and embrace new challenges. The show is designed for people who may not see themselves as traditional adventurers but are curious about pushing their boundaries. Through storytelling, personal anecdotes, and guest interviews, I'll share raw, relatable, and often humorous insights into the highs and lows of exploration. My goal is to make adventure feel accessible and exciting, showing that you don’t need to be an expert hiker or camper to experience something life-changing.
