In many a way I think that this is one of the most important factors that I have had to come to terms with, the realisation that everything and everyone around us is evolving, changing at such a rapid rate. In order to keep pace, one has to have the ability to evolve with it.
Ultimately each journey will etch a scar of life as it passes. As I fought the twisting path of this journey, a path that has sent me on so many unplanned detours, I look back at the many different stages and how everything has panned out, they are far from the original path.
What does the future hold for us? Is there hope in the future for our country?. We have undergone such massive change over the past 15 years and in order to carry on with this process, there must be a reward. To David that reward is hope and the knowledge that this country is going to be a better place.
Through this run I had to personally deal with life threatening situations and life changing decisions, ultimately realizing that in order to continue with my journey I had to embrace change and evolve. I found out how important it is to be able to change as we travel our personal journeys through life to ultimately meet success.

David Grier is a Chef by profession and a Humanitarian by passion. Extreme Adventurer, Bestselling Author, and Inspirational Speaker. Fueled by a passion to make a difference in the lives of children born with clefts and in need of life changing corrective surgery, David turned to extreme adventurism to create awareness and raise fund for this cause and assist with their corrective surgery.
He has become the first person to have run the length of the Great Wall of China in both directions and since then has gone on to 6 more arduous, breath-taking adventures, each one adding to his life’s lessons which have now been crafted into a talk. “Back to the Wall”.4 of the journeys have been captured in coffee table books that David has written.

David Grier is a man whose life reads like an epic adventure novel. Trained as a chef, David’s culinary prowess is matched only by his zeal for humanitarian causes and his thirst for adventure. Transitioning from the heat of the kitchen to some of the world’s most daunting landscapes, David has turned extreme adventuring into a platform for inspiring change. His journey as an inspirational speaker began after he completed a landmark run along the Great Wall of China—a feat that not only tested his physical limits but also raised substantial funds for charity. This endeavor set the stage for a series of global adventures, each tied to a cause greater than the pursuit itself, from trekking across India to paddling down the length of the mighty Zambezi River.
David’s influence at events is palpable. As a keynote speaker, he draws from his rich tapestry of experiences, delivering talks that are not only motivational but also infused with deep insights and life lessons. His ability to connect with his audience through stories of resilience, teamwork, and personal challenge ensures that every presentation is memorable and impactful. David’s talks go beyond mere adventure tales; they are profound reflections on human potential and the power of positive change.
A bestselling author, David Grier’s books provide a deeper dive into his philosophy and adventures. Titles like Courage and Rice, which documents his journey through Asia, offer readers a mix of culinary delights and spiritual insights, mirroring the unique blend of passions that drive him. His books further establish his credibility as a thought leader who practices what he preaches—pushing boundaries and embracing the unknown.
In the realm of humanitarian efforts, David’s contributions are significant. His adventures are intricately linked with fundraising initiatives for Cipla Miles for Smiles, a foundation that provides corrective surgery for children born with cleft lips and palates. His commitment to this cause is a testament to his character, proving that his adventures serve a dual purpose: to challenge himself and to make a tangible difference in the lives of others.
At events, David is consistently a sought-after speaker for his ability to inspire transformation—both personal and communal. His presentations are a blend of breathtaking visuals from his journeys, engaging storytelling, and actionable insights that encourage audiences to consider how they, too, can conquer their personal ‘Everests.’ His message is clear: boundaries are meant to be crossed, and true fulfillment comes from giving back and living passionately.
