Testing, testing, one, two, one, two, is this thing on? So it’s been a little while since I wrote a blog post….like over two years. My bad. Life’s been pretty busy but that shouldn’t get in the way of adventure. The most recent one has been to venture out to Lake Skinner, a beautiful alpine … More Lake Skinner
I have Netflix to thank for the very first stop on our main adventure. We watched a hilarious Irish movie earlier this year called The Young Offenders. It’s about two young scallywags from Cork who go on a big adventure to find a bale of cocaine washed ashore from a drug trafficking boat. It’s not … More Ireland: Three Castle Head

There is a special place on Mount Wellington that only appears a handful of times each year. It is the Disappearing Tarn and is formed only after a heavy rainfall or large dumping of snow. UPDATE AUGUST 2019 There’s been rather a lot of rain and snowing in the month of August this year with … More Disappearing Tarn: Mount Wellington
Well it happened again, Tasmania has blown my mind with its epicness. Today we went on a hike up to the tarn shelf at Mount Field and did a nice 15+ km circuit from the Lake Dobson car park and pack.

I had intended to check out … More A walk down the Labe river in Pardubice
Ah yes, The Sound of Music, for many of us it’s our first introduction to Austria….or your first Arnie movie, depending on your preference. I’d go somewhere in the middle….An Arnie musical James?…..Yes….yes one of those. So Austria then, the second leg of our Austro-German holiday trip in the absolutely delightful town of Pertisau on … More I wonder what grass tastes like: Pertisau, Austria.
Went down to the lake the other day to attempt to shoot a different take on the Harlem Shake craze. I was hoping to film all the swans and ducks when they were all together and then wait for them to disperse again and film the half empty lake. And then edit it into a … More Of sliding ducks and nervous mice
I hate to say it but I’m finally sick of snow, and all it’s loveliness. Back home we’d get snow once every……..ooooooh…..ten years, although in recent years we’ve had some pretty nasty winters with heavy snow. But it was still a novelty, we made a snowman, messed about in it, laughed when we slipped on … More Snow place like home
