Travels

I’ve been fortunate enough to do quite a bit of travelling over the years, and many of my trips have involved walking or trekking of some kind. I have trekked in the Rwenzori ‘Mountains of the Moon’ in Uganda (pic above), in the Annapurna region of the Himalayas, and in the deserts of Northern Kenya. Closer to home I have walked Coast to Coast from North to South Devon and covered hundreds of miles along the South West Coast Path.

Walking in the natural world is truly a wonderful thing.

Africa is a continent I’ve visited many times. I’ve produced media for a criminal justice project in Malawi (Malawi Bail Project), a community wildlife conservancy in Tsavo, Kenya (Lumo Conservancy) and a community education project on the Kenyan coast (Etatu). In Vietnam I’ve worked with anti trafficking NGO Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation in Hanoi, and trekked in the Northern Mountain region.

2024 - with kids having ‘flown the nest’ and the body still holding up (just!) I’ve embarked on a new chapter; travelling to new places whilst documenting lesser known projects, people and stories along the way. I travel light and as ‘low carbon’ as is feasable, generally travelling around by train and on foot.
