What if the darker months of autumn and winter weren’t something to get through, but something to experience?
I am setting myself a 6 month outdoor challenge to keep you getting outside during the dark days, and you can join!
After a long winter, I wanted a way to truly notice the arrival of spring. This small seasonal pack — with a field guide, sensory prompts, and a few carefully chosen pieces — is an experiment in slowing down and marking the change of season. A project built quietly, with intention, and released simply because I’m glad it exists.
A story about trying to push through fear, and learning when not to.
A simple DIY calendar to capture small joys and big moments before they quietly slip away.
In August 2024, I was one of the 45,000 volunteers helping to bring the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games to life.

It has been close to 2 years I didn’t write on the blog. I am sure you didn’t miss me. But to be honest, I did miss you :). So what happened? It just feels like these 2 years have been slipping away. After becoming an Ironman and at the same time completing the big…

Between me and my goal of completing an ironman stood a 3.8km swim, 180km cycle and a marathon to run (42.2km).
For outdoors lovers, Scotland is a paradise. This is the story of a 7 day road trip on the North Coast of Scotland. The idea had been planted in my head several years ago, during a previous Scottish trip. We met travellers who couldn’t stop but raving about the wild beauty of the deserted North. We swore to come back and to see it with our own eyes.
What do you want this year to be? To kick off the new year I want to share with you a London outdoors and sport calendar, or 12 ideas (one for each month of the year) to have an adventurous year without leaving the British capital city. It may seem counter intuitive but it’s during…
As the end of the year is upon us, I always like to take a few moments to look back on the last 365 days. It truly has been a fantastic year for sports, outdoors and new discoveries! I started the year still recovering from injury, being just able to run 5K and unsure about…
