This week was a bit unusual. I moved to the Philippines from Indonesia to set up a base for a month of solid training. I’m training for the Swim Run event in Nusa Lembongan. The Swim Run is a charity event to raise $60,000 USD to upgrade the Nusa Lembongan recycling center. It is currently …

The last week of our epic three-week Romblon adventure was here. We said goodbye to Romblon, Romblon and also to Dan. He headed back down under and left the last week of adventures to Nic and I. We jumped over to Sibuyan on the ferry and didn’t waste any time getting stuck into the adventures. …
Libtong Falls is an off-the-beaten-path waterfall on the island of Romblon in Romblon Province. We found out about it from a local and set off in search of the waterfall for a morning adventure. Our local friend told us to drive past Apunan Point in the south of Romblon Island and continue driving until we …
After our epic week in Tablas, we headed on to Romblon, Romblon.

Dan and Nic were still with me for the week of adventures and we definitely explored Romblon in depth! …
Last week the media trip with the tourism board of The Philippines ended in Bicol. I had decided to stay in the Philippines for another 3 weeks. But where to explore. Having already visited the main tourist hotspots on my initial backpacking trip to the Philippines, I opened up the map and looked at my …
Caramoan is only an hour flight away from Manila, yet despite its close proximity, it is a bit of an unknown destination. I recently spent several days in Caramoan at Tugawe Cove Resort. The island hopping in Caramoan was comparable to that of El Nido. The best part about Caramoan is you get all the …
Week 92 was a moment to embark on a new adventure. I boarded a plane from Denpasar, Bali with Nic Morley and headed to Manila, Philippines. After three weeks in Bali of putting in some hustle on the blog and some technical tasks, I was stoked to be bound for another big adventure. For the …
75 weeks on the road. That’s three-quarters of a century. What a freaking journey it has been so far. I think I say that every week so I’m sorry if my reflection is getting old but good god the adventure is real! This week we have survived round 1 of the storms that are currently …
I’ve been flying my DJI Mavic drone for almost 6 months now. I’m not an expert pilot, I just send it up in the air and look around snapping some photos. I don’t fly with much caution and finally, this caught up with me. We were in Socorro on an island hopping trip. Jorden and …
I’ve well and truly settled into island life. Our Airbnb has become a great base for daily adventures and I’m feeling more at home than ever. Each week when I write this weekly post I look back at the photos in my Lightroom folder and I stop and question if I really did all these …
