Writing
As well as the writing on this website, I write both recreationally and professionally elsewhere. I cover topics such as cycling, sports and fitness, travel, camping and sporting gear reviews, non-fiction filmmaking and filmmaking during expeditions.
I write freelance articles for publication in magazines journals and newspapers such as the Guardian and the Sunday Times, as well as websites such as Explorers Connect. Links to some examples of my previous work can be found below.

The Book (?)
Since returning from 'The Cycling Reporter' expedition, I have tentatively begun a book on the adventure. Stay tuned for more updates on that one.
