I’ve been moving around for five years now. There’s a certain style of travel I have come to love, which allows me to explore a new place but also have a base and a little balance. My favorite set-up is when I have an island or region to explore but I can remain in one …
You live your own life and it becomes so normal to you. Sometimes I really consider my situation and it makes me shake my head a little bit. Basically, this week I took an island vacation from the other island of Madeira. I headed to Porto Santo, a prime sun-baking destination. However, for those of …
This blog post isn’t about money or about a vertical kilometer climbed, it’s about a milestone that’s taken me almost five years to reach. It’s hard to celebrate it with anyone because very few can relate or understand what has even been involved. This week, on what began as just another little travel blog, I …
Time flies. It’s almost been a month on Madeira. This is my fourth weekly journal since touching down on the island and it has gone by in a blur. An overwhelmingly enjoyable blur. I found it ironic that it can be difficult to keep up with all of my own adventures and to recall everything …
The Philippines is the definition of paradise and it’s easy to see why!

In five years of travel, I’ve honestly never felt more freedom than when I stepped out of the airport on Madeira Island. It was a fresh start for 2020 and although I enjoyed my time in Adelaide, setting off on a new adventure had me feeling reinvigorated and stoked to explore the island. My plan …
It’s been a strange seven days. So strange I’m still struggling to wrap my head around the world we live in as I sat here at Manchester Airport. Yes, you read right… Manchester. It’s not my final destination as part of this 36-hour journey and is only part of the contributions to the oddities of …
Kangaroo Island is one of my favorite parts of South Australia. This magical island truly has it all. From pristine beaches to an abundance of wildlife to epic hiking and trail running you can really find some unique landscapes and natural attractions on Kangaroo Island. Therefore it’s no surprise that it’s a photographer’s heaven, which …
This week was a classic Adelaide lockdown week for me. I ticked all the boxes but don’t have any momentous occasions that jump to mind when I sit down to write this weekly wrap up come Sunday. That’s okay though because even when life feels like a highlight reel, it’s still the unglorious parts of …
