One of the reasons for my month long trip to Sri Lanka was to get in the water and improve my photography amongst the waves. Shooting in the surf is a lot more difficult than people imagine and you have to have some knowledge of that environment before you even get in. Tides, currents, rips…

A Different Kind Of Christmas
“Do your research. Read labels. Buy less. Buy local. And support brands that care.” Christmas is coming, we’re in the countdown stage and already some enthusiastic neighbors have excessive neon lights and decorations blinding you from their sitting room windows. ‘Tis the season to be jolly (although slightly annoying). Christmas is less than 4 weeks…
Get The Boys A Lift
I recently wrote an article for a local newspaper called The Western Telegraph about Get The Boys A Lift, a not for profit organization based here in Pembrokeshire helping local and national mental health organizations (and if you haven’t already heard of them, where have you been?!) The organization was set up in 2016…
How do you measure success?
It’s funny how the more and more I talk to different people about success, the more I dislike the word and wonder how this “thing” can be categorized at all. Success is COMPLETELY different to each and every one of us. Take a minute to think about it. What comes to mind when you hear…
BALI
This is definitely the hardest post to write about my travels, because it is indeed the last for now. BALI. What a place, it really really is a surfers paradise and a place I could quite happily spend a lot more of my time. Starting in a jungle we explored Ubud, Seminyak, Kuta, Canggu and…
Island Hopping in Indonesia
So with plans to go from Komodo to Flores and back, we didn’t quite make it all that way unfortunately. It’s a hard realisation when you find you’re running out of time in a country that needs sooo much of it to explore. But yes, our time was running low (and our money even lower…)…
1 Year Post-Uni…
So, today marks exactly a year since my graduation from Falmouth. I wanted to write a little post about the past year (almost a year since I began this blog too), mainly for myself…to look back on what has happened over the past 12 months, and just because it’s always good to check in with yourself…
Wild Rajasthan
Rajasthan – a wild desert state. We stayed in two separate cities, completely different and each breathtakingly beautiful. Jaipur – The Pink City Called the Pink City due to all the buildings within the walled historic centre painted a terracotta pink colour, this is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve seen. Not meaning to…
INDIA: a love/hate story
Ohhhh India, where to even begin? Flying out of Singapore and into New Delhi was a shock in itself. One of the cleanest cities in the world to one of the dirtiest in the space of 5 hours. We braced ourselves to leave the airport and enter the dusty Delhi streets, and we were right…
Singapore: can you fall in love with a city?
Said to be “The cleanest city in the world,” Singapore is definitely a good contender for this title. Landing in Singapore felt like a completely different world to the tiny Thai airport we’d just left. Everything was so BIG and so clean. The first thing we did was grab a tourist MRT (underground/metro) card and…
