Biography
Ashly Fusiarski Adventurer
Ashly Fusiarski is a professional expedition leader and author. He has led, managed and facilitated teams around the world in some of the most hostile, yet beautiful and spectacular places on the planet. He has lived what many consider to be ‘the dream’ but his unique style and humour provide an insight into the reality of being a full-time explorer.
Delicately tip-toeing around the edge of safety margins and acceptable risk, he continues to survive despite being hunted by polar bears in the Arctic or by Somalian pirates while sailing through the Gulf of Aden. He continues to be an alpinist despite being blasted off the granite towers of Patagonia in hurricane force winds or suffering acute mountain sickness in the Himalaya. He still guides and explores in Antarctica despite months of eating nothing but dehydrated food and having to use the questionable toilet facilities and he will forever love the night time concertos of the jungle while retrospectively ignoring all the mosquito bites.
His stories highlight his motivations and explain his endurance and tenacity but also come with the lessons he has learned along the way, not least of all the importance of friendship and human connection. Topics which inspired him to write his first fiction novel; Stray Dog.
