Welcome

Welcome and thank you for popping in. 

 

Do feel free to have a good look around – I like to think my website is like a well-designed garden – you can’t see it all from one place.  It will also contain the things you expect to find … and a few things that will probably surprise you – that is the joy of exploration. 

 

So have a wander around, click on things and generally explore and hopefully, also like a great garden, you will leave feeling inspired, full of ideas and smiling.

Weatherman Walking on the BBC

I was delighted to be invited to lead a barefoot walk through and around my beautiful hometown of Crickhowell, for the BBC's Weatherman Walking.

As well as sharing our stunning scenery, I am always keen to walk in the mountains, and talk about the benefits of going beyond your perceived limits.

"Everything you've ever wanted is just a step or two outside of your comfort zone."
