ROME This fits into the very small category of 'places like no other'. I was so easily transported back 1000s of years. Walking through a mix of Assassin's Creed, Gladiator and Age of Empires. I could practically hear the tunic laden soliders marching down cobbled streets, the noise from ancient market places, the smell of smoke from their fires. Basically Rome was sickasfuck - and that's coming from someone who tries to avoid cities.

Hiking Kilimanjaro: Everything You Need to Know Be

Hiking Kilimanjaro: Everything You Need to Know Before You Go! Did you know that one of the Kilimanjaro routes has just a 27% summit success rate? Compared to 85% for another. You may also be interested to hear that the demographic with the lowest chances of reaching the summit are men aged 20-30. Hiking Kilimanjaro is an incredible feat; your endurance, toughness and mental fortitude will for sure be tested. The mountain is absolutely not to be underestimated in any way. Reaching the summit of a mountain is about controlling variables. Doing whatever you can to maximise your chances of success, by preparing your mind, body and equipment. Check out my article under the 'Expeditions' tab on my website to find out what can be done to to give yourself the best chance of reaching the summit.

Do as I say, not as I do. Kayak guides infamously

Do as I say, not as I do. Kayak guides infamously have terrible paddle technique. Look where my hands are! No wonder I'm always going in circles. Joking aside, it's been great playing around the Cornish coast for @cornishrocktors again. As well as a chance to share the outdoors with new people, I've also been able to put my @bending_branches Navigator blade through its paces. Honestly, the ultimate hardiness test for any outdoor gear is to give it to an instructor. We snap snowboards in half, pop buckles, corrode away all fittings with salty sea water and ding paddles off of rocks regularly. Gear doesn't last very long. So I am stoked that the Navigator is still looking solid as ever and turning heads. Soon, very soon, I can put it through its ultimate test: the 1800km sea kayak expedition up the Inside Passage to Alaska. Check out @ffs_expedition for details on that. 📷 Mat @cornishrocktors

Just breeeeeeeeeathe 🧘‍♂️ Enter your hap

Just breeeeeeeeeathe 🧘‍♂️ Enter your happy place. Take a moment and relax. In through the nose, out through the mouth. Stop scrolling and relax. Life is nice. There's good in the world and there's a lot of it around you. And more will come your way. When things get hectic, escape into nature. Walk, run, swim. Nature is healing. The sun will provide you power, it boosts your mood and will give you energy. The fresh air will clear your head. The bird song will push away your thoughts. So take a minute and just breathe.

Celebrating just over a year of selling prints! O

Celebrating just over a year of selling prints! One year on and 37 of my prints are hanging on walls, all the way from Canada to the UAE! I am amazed every time a sale comes in. To think somebody out there likes one of my images enough to put it on their wall and see it everyday. It really is an honour. To one day sell prints had been a longterm goal of mine. It's incredible to see it come to fruition. I had 'photographer' in my bio for a LONG time before I ever made any money from it. It was there as a reminder to myself. Because if I couldn't even convince myself that I'm a photographer, then how could anyone else take me seriously? So if you want to turn a passion into a profession, the first step is telling yourself you are already there. "Allow your passion to become your purpose, and it will one day become your profession" - Gabrielle Bernstein. Go check out the full range in The Print Shop on my website. Thanks to all the friends, family and strangers who support what I do. ✌
