I've had a blast working with @motorolaUK over the last 6 months... Especially as it's meant working with my best four-legged pal by my side!
Dogs may be man's best friend, but the #edge20lite isn't too far behind 😉
Shoutout to @_annablackwell and the ever adorable Bilbo for this snap!

“It was called Rise Fierce because it was about getting up in the morning with a fierce attitude, ‘Rise up, sunrise, go for a swim!’ But Rise Fierce has become about so much more” Brand new film with dryrobe® Ambassador @sophiehellyer coming soon… #dryrobeterritory #RiseFierce

I've been sharing photos and journal extracts from my latest little Arctic adventure over on IG. It was a... varied... trip, six incredible days and then forced to activate my SOS and get a helicopter out on day 7. Explanation and more from the trip: bit.ly/3eJwtGO – at South West, England
This weekend I'm heading up to Arctic Sweden for 8 days of solo trekking in some of Europe's remotest mountains. What am I most worried about? The number of spiders I'll inevitably find in my cottage when I get back. – at South West, England
It was fantastic to be part of this webinar last week! After a year of almost no public speaking, it was great to be able to discuss my MSc research on self-supported adventure and resilience, this time in the context of surviving and thriving in challenging circumstances. – at South West, England
Thrilled at the great turnout tonight for our first online event for female Exeter graduates (@Exalumni), on the subject of Surviving & Thriving in Challenging Circumstances - rather apt right now!

As storm Ellen approaches please take heed of the warnings, the risk of dangerous seas, strong rips and fast water with expected waves of up to 9 feet. Please do not put yourselves or the emergency services at risk by entering dangerous waters, stay safe, respect the elements🌊
Heading into the final two weeks of my MSc Environment and Human Health and my dissertation on self-supported adventures and resilience is nearly done... Can't wait to share what I've been researching! – at South West, England
How to avoid the crowds on beaches this summer:
🍉 find a mate
🍉 grab a couple of paddleboards
🍉 paddle out to a buoy ideally >500m from the beach
🍉 moor up to said buoy so you don't drift away
🍉 eat watermelon,… instagram.com/p/CC0e3pojohi/… – at Truro, England
Today was pretty bloody fantastic. Feeling grateful for these awesome people I get to call my pals, for Cornwall in general, for the existence of cheesy chips, for sunshine, and for the colour of the sea on days like… instagram.com/p/CC1mOnkjmaH/… – at Newquay, England

Please, do NOT shop for Britain.
Consumerism drives us towards an even greater crisis than the pandemic: the collapse of our life support systems.

"Ahead lay a short 3km hike to the Treriksröset, the cairn marking where Sweden, Finland and Norway meet in the Arctic. From there, a not-so-short hike of 1,000km."

Kept finding I didn't have enough hours in the day to do everything I wanted... So I've started getting up a few hours earlier. I'm enjoying these atmospheric early mornings, but still working out the best way of getting through the mid-morning urge to snooze... tips welcome 🌞 – at Truro, England
