Stopped at a taco restaurant the other night and had what I think could be the meal of the trip. From now on, I would like all my meats cooked al pastor.

We arrived in Mexico City on 1st November and thought we would go and have a look around to see what went on. Fortuitously, we’d decided to stay in Coyoacán which had shut down block upon block for the duration. The streets were packed with …

Started using the Tapestry app these past few days and I’m now obsessed with the idea of creating a connector for it. I just need to find something!

The next destination on our journey was Guatemala. This is by a long shot the most beautiful place I’ve ever been. Sitting and watching volcanoes spit smoke whilst having breakfast is a very novel experience. With a lot of volcanoes comes a lot …

Next on our travels was Costa Rica. We immediately became acquainted with the concept of Pura Vida and saw some of the most amazing wildlife I’ll likely ever get the chance to.

We saw a Green Sea Turtle crawl onto the beach and lay its eggs …

Some friends came to see us in our room in the mountains outside Cusco…

Our big trip started with a couple of weeks in Peru. I really loved the time we spent there, it was non-stop action.

We started in Barranco, a small neighbourhood on the outskirts of Lima where we got a taste for Ceviche and local beer. We even …

Months/years of planning, more admin than you could imagine plus leaving our jobs has led us to this! We’re off on adventure ✈️

Had a great time at my first Green Man festival last weekend. I’ll definitely be going back next year! Nice to not have to walk miles a day compared to bigger festivals and there was non-stop music I was into. 10/10 experience

Overpriced pints in the sun in Brighton this weekend to watch a stacked lineup of bands including English Teacher (pictured). When they say “on the beach” they mean it!

Time to right a wrong and finally read this book!

Is there anything better than watching a live show as the sun goes down? The Black Keys last night were excellent, as were the vibes.

A couple of updates in my current blog theme just now. I’m trying to get this ready to be in the hands of everyone else like Microwave. Super happy with some of the feedback from people on that and pleased it’s getting used. Some more …

Lovely couple of days in Wales experiencing the full range of possible weather and drinking an awful lot of beer.

It’s 10:30pm and I’m sat outside drinking a beer in my garden. It’s only just going dark and it’s over 20°. Summer doesn’t last long here but my word when it hits it’s remarkable.

Lovely walk through a forest of bluebells the other week

If you squint really, really hard.. Stockport can look marvellous.

A lovely photo of Hebden Bridge train station in the sun a few weeks ago. Was on a nice boozing session and have just rediscovered the photo whilst flicking through my camera roll.

Moody bagel shop in Paris at night

How cool is this bag I got with a CD in a record store in Paris at the weekend? Not very often you see this kind of thing.

If croissant hunting in Paris were a sport, I’d be a champion.

Drinking by the river in Paris with a €2 tall boy from carrefour. Am I breaking the law? Who cares. Vibes are immaculate

Last weekend it was freakishly nearly 20° and here’s proof I did something fun with it! The false spring we seem to get every single year.

Went on a lovely walk on my birthday earlier in the month. Just flicking through photos and thought I’d drop this one on the blog.

Feels a long time ago since I was here already! Descending into the soup on skis is quite the experience

Also here’s a lovely cat I rudely woke up to take a photograph of 🐈

A glorious shot from a rooftop in Marrakech. I’ve got a lens for my mirrorless camera that’s from a disposable, and adds so much character to photos.

Another January ski trip done. The beauty of the landscape always blows my mind whenever I’m not in a haze of too much exercise and Aperol. The ultimate way to get away and come home feeling refreshed.

I’m in Marrakesh this weekend. Getting on a plane at -7° and getting off one at 20° made me feel excellent

Taking a couple of days off posting photos while there’s nothing interesting happening. That should change by the weekend!

Day 6 will be the end of my reliance on cat content 🐈

Day 5: More Mabel content 🐈

Day 4: Late night snow clouds. Impressed with the low light performance on the iPhone 15 pro!

Day 2’s photo: Mabel the cat sleeping where the hot water pipe runs under the floor

These are rookie numbers. Need to be going harder in 2025

I said I’d try and post a photo every day so here we are. Walking around today and finally took a photo of this wall art.

I will be fuming if all the best album of the year lists don’t include Manning Fireworks by MJ Lenderman. It’s far and away my favourite.

Need to start watching the second series of Silo soon. Loved the first which sent me into reading the books – and they were even better.

Then there’s a new series of Severance on the way.. need to rewatch S1 of that. So much good TV, and that’s …

Had a blast in Bruges last weekend. Belgium was such a great place to visit 🇧🇪

Quite a few people wanting to try in Bruges

I’m in Bruges for the weekend, sampling fries and beers. This one was particularly nice

Lovely to spend a day in Valencia last week. Already feels ages ago 😭

I can’t even imagine how bad the hangover would be from this

Just about to get stuck into this. Busy day full of trepidation ahead of tomorrow’s triathlon. 😬

The sunset last night was bonkers

Drinking beer with my feet up. This is one of the good days

Went to Scotland for the first time. Not sure how it took me so long 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What I really love about Glastonbury is that every inch of the place has something to look at. I’m just about over the blues at this point, but normal life just isn’t the same.

Spent the week on a farm. Two horrible bus journeys, horrendously heavy bags and red hot sun. Worth it all ten times over ✌️

Spent some time yesterday modding a Game Boy Advance I bought on eBay. Turns out when I played the original one I realised where my bad eyesight came from.. new screen is so bright!

We were all this cat in the sweltering heat this past weekend

Spent a few days in Dublin drinking copious amounts of the good stuff. The city feels quite similar to home at times, and at others it’ll feel very much like Europe. Won’t be the last time I’m here!

Drank a really enjoyable few pints of this after work yesterday. I’m going to pretend that I could tell the ‘oak cask difference’ 🍺

The camera on the iPhone 15 Pro is outstanding. Snapped this outside the pub last night

Another weekend well spent in the French Alps. Have my legs ever been this tired?

If everything goes well, then I’ve posted my first micro.blog post through a new app I’m building to avoid paying IFTTT money. I’ll shout a bit more about it when it’s closer to ready!
