Adventure is freedom in at least two ways,....

Firstly,  that to be adventurous one must be free to choose one's route to adventure (perhaps also one's destination - should the latter be important). Secondly, of course is the freedom to really be there - in the moment, at the place, doing what adventure wants done - through curiosity, performance, creativity, intellect. courage, wisdom, ethics, and so on - of course a mix is also often present.

Here we have BBC Radio 4 and Edinburgh Festival 2018 collaborating in Freedom. Five short programmes (in total an 68 minutes) on what freedom means in 2018 for ten writers and speakers. I have chosen to highlight Nichola Davies poem. 6 minutes to introduce her great friend of and for life: Freedom by Nichola Davies:  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/play/b0bgpfw1

It is available on this link for 28 days from 26th August, 2018.
