One reason to get outside?
Nature heals. I truly believe that so many solutions can be found in the wild. From taking time to soak up the sun and sit amongst the trees to going on big adventures. Nature is a vessel to heal and learn in many forms.
One thing you never forget to pack for an adventure (and why)?
The number of times I've been left walking out from an adventure using my phone torch while on 10% phone battery has taught me to ALWAYS pack a headlamp.
One bit of advice you’ll always remember?
You only fail if you quit.
One tip to share with budding outdoorsists?
Some outdoor activities feel so out of reach. I had no idea what to do or pack for my first overnight hike. But! Over time these things become part of your everyday life and the barrier for entry to each adventure becomes significantly easier. Sometimes people are turned away from outdoor adventure because it feels big and intimidating. Which it is sometimes! But take your time, make mistakes and the grand adventures will be on their way before you know it, small steps.
One time you felt out of your comfort zone?
The most out of my comfort zone I have felt in the outdoors would have been descending off of Ala Izquierda (5600m) in Bolivia - a technical alpine route. Descending on an extremely loose scree slab with 1000m of air below your feet. Knowing that a single slip or trip on your crampons or rock breaking would make for a very inconvenient journey to the valley floor. This was the most emotionally challenged I’ve ever felt outdoors.
One reason there’s no place like home?
The connection you build with a place is not indifferent to a relationship with a person. The time spent in familiar outdoor spaces forms a bond with that place unlike anywhere else.
