I recently returned from a 2,300 mile bike-packing tour around the north-east of the U.S. with my brother.

Growing up on a diet of mountain walking, sailing, windsurfing and bike riding instilled a life long love of adventures in the great outdoors. Since then I’ve walked across Spain, trekked in the outback of Australia, cycled across Europe via the North Cape, climbed in Peru, Chile and stood on the roof of Western Europe (Mont Blanc). Adventure lets me live in the moment, live simply, appreciate friends, family and nature deeply.

Happiest when I’m outdoors with a camera in my hand.
