For those that end up here reading my little weekly excerpt, I just want to say that throughout this lockdown I’ve never meant to make a title or my situation seem too dramatic so I hope nothing has come across that way. I’ve actually been pretty mellow throughout and I generally have a pretty decent …
SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Going with the flow is so much easier said than done, but when you can manage to float with the current instead of fighting upstream everything is easier, even if you feel like you are heading in the wrong direction. I think the beauty of that idea is that what we often understand to be …
Thousands turned out today in the city of Adelaide in solidarity with Minneapolis, justice for George Floyd, and the fight against racism in the U.S.A. It was also an important day to look at life in our own backyard where Indigenous Australians and other minorities also battle against systemic racism and still fight to this …
Motivation comes and goes, energy ebbs and flows but pacing yourself is your ticket to longevity. Knowing how to go hard, hustle, and pour yourself into something is a characteristic. Knowing how long you can sustain that input is experience. Whether it be your physical training or your entrepreneurial efforts, the right pace claims victory …
When I made it back to Adelaide, I was pretty drained. It had been a few straight months of shooting, hiking, adventuring and creating content. It’s always super productive, very enjoyable and you are constantly overwhelmed with amazing people, sights, and opportunities when you live at a fast pace like that. However, it does start …
Lockdown has well and truly passed the point of any novelty if it had any, to begin with. It’s now been almost three months back in Adelaide and life has become somewhat a routine even for me. There are elements of routine that are comforting, practical, and downright enjoyable but the unpredictability of my regular …
Right now, for me, it is impossible not to live in the moment. I simply cannot make any plans beyond a month. This is a concept I’ve unknowingly been training myself to deal with over the last few years. Since 2016 I’ve been learning how to live in the moment. Not in the cliche way …
I am well and truly settled in and locked down in Adelaide at this point, which means you start to create a few patterns, rituals, or habits. I’ve been running and riding a lot but there is one session each week, which stands out from the rest. Each Sunday I’ve been heading off with two …
Every seven days I write ‘The Weekly’ and normally it is wrapping up my travels and adventures over the course of the last week. There have been many times where there are just too many hikes, locations, waterfalls, and activities to even bother listing them all in the weekly. However, now ‘The Weekly’ is functioning …
Environment Minister for South Australia, David Speirs, joined the Adventure Bag Crew for a morning clean-up at Sea Cliff Beach. After chatting back and forth about single-use plastics, policy and much more, I managed to get David Speirs to join us down at Seacliff for the clean-up. Joining us as well was Adopt-a-Spot organization who …
This week was highlighted by the launch of ‘Project Lombok’. I had the idea after watching the rise of the ‘workshop’. It seemed that everyone and anyone was booking out workshops, retreats and travel trips. I myself ran a workshop last March but at the time the trend hadn’t quite kicked off and there weren’t …
These weeks in Adelaide have been a grind. They haven’t been hard as such but they have been monotonous. I have been doing the same thing on the computer for almost a month now every day and I find it hard to get motivated for the next day knowing that the majority of it will …
