Hike More. Camp More. Swim More.
Having not been able to get out and about recently due to my knee, I've had a lot of time to sort through my kit and have a bit of a clear out. In the process of doing this, it's highlighted those key bits of kits that I go back to time and time again.... Continue Reading →
One of my favourite things about moving down to the South West, is having a completely different landscape to explore. So I thought I'd share a few of my favourite places I've been to so far. Trevose Head to Treyarnon Rock Pool This area has quickly become one of my favourites in Cornwall and definitely... Continue Reading →
The rat race of the corporate world was not for me. Having money and 'things' didn't make me happy. It took me quite a while to realise that I didn't have to continue on this path and that I could in fact work a part time job and make time for adventures, whilst still being... Continue Reading →

I've recently had quite a few people asking me how I've found those that I go out walking with, so I thought I'd share a few of the platforms that have helped me. It has definitely been a long process of pushing myself out of my comfort zone and building my confidence though. Local /Facebook... Continue Reading →
Last week I took on one of my biggest challenges to date, the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. You would think being a Yorkshire girl, I would have done this before now, or at least one of them, but no. It has been on my list for a while and I really wanted to end my two-week... Continue Reading →
When lockdown first hit, I was at the start of a new job, newly separated and living on my own for the first time. I have never been great in my own company and always seems to find myself in a downward spiral whenever I spend too much time on my own. To keep myself... Continue Reading →
