June 5, 2022Part 2. Ok, where were we? Camp. Food. We had been on a reasonably strict elimination diet for the past 6 months, for health reasons. As it was just me out here I thought I’d try putting some extra plant foods back into what I was eating. So tonight was chorizo, tomatoes and olives. Well, […]

June 4, 2022Part 1. I had been watching the weather all week. As more torrential rain struck Brisbane, 2000km away on the east coast. Causing more flooding and damage to an already flooded and damaged part of the country. This rain was making it’s way south-west, through outback Queensland and then to northern New South Wales, specifically […]

HEALTH FOOD…
May 27, 2022I’ve always said the You Tube algorithm is the best. Out of all the digital platforms I use, YT by far feeds me the most interesting content – I never thought it would start me on a new path to increased health, fitness and happiness.

Bikepacking Through Little Germany (Australia). Part 3
May 8, 2021Come the morning my ‘drying cloth’ got another good work out. To dry the outside (sprinkler system) and inside (condensation) of the tent flysheet.

Bikepacking Through Little Germany (Australia). Part 2
May 5, 2021A couple of photos from my packing before the trip. Safe to say the gear side of things is still an evolution for me.

The Slow Revolution Of Travel.
April 21, 2021Travel affects you in some obvious ways, a suntan, food you haven’t tried before, a new friend, a new found love, or a new found love for beaches/mountains/deserts/whatever. This is not unexpected, part of the reason you went travelling in the first place. However, I’m thinking that it affects your life in more subtle and […]
