  • If you have been following my stories you would have seen that I'm visiting the beautiful island of Jersey. A whirlwind tour of local producers and coastlines. Today we visited a @tenderstem farmer where we picked fresh stems from the field and ate a glorious raw food picnic.... heavenly!!!

  • I watched this old guy stand up punt his boat across the harbour from his yacht. Such spirit and strength. A true seaman. I'm currently on a press trip in Jersey with @visitjerseyci and @tenderstem and I am loving the passion and love the locals have for their home. What a beautiful island. . . . . #CondeNast #NatGeoLandscape #passionpassport #explorationgram #traveldeeper #vscotravel #exploretocreate #mytinyatlas #lovegreatbritain #bbctravel #visitengland#instabritain #beautifulmatters#mytinyatlas #suitcasetravels #iamatraveler#guardiantravelsnaps #theprettycities#topeuropephoto #postcardplaces#culturetrip #tlpicks #cbviews#traveldeeper #lonelyplanet#darlingescapes #boat #sea #lebreakinsulaire (partner)

  • Yesterday in the September sunshine, Dan and I took a bike ride around parts of Bristol we have never properly explored before. Discovering hidden alleyways and glorious views. . It's Wednesday. I've got a busy day of meetings then a early evening flight to Jersey. What are you up to today? . . . #CondeNast #NatGeoLandscape #passionpassport #traveldeeper #vscotravel #exploretocreate #igersbristol #photosofbritain#photosofengland #lovegreatbritain #bbctravel #visitengland#instabritain #beautifulmatters#mytinyatlas #suitcasetravels #iamatraveler#guardiantravelsnaps #theprettycities#topeuropephoto #postcardplaces #lonelyplanet #darlingescapes#huffposttravel #door #building

  • I can't stop thinking about this beautiful beast. We walked around a thicket of gorse to be confronted by a wild somerset pony. She stood there for a moment looking at us as we marvelled in her beauty. Then she slowly walked towards us. Welcoming our touch. As I stepped up to stroke her nose and she lent her head against me breathing deeply. I got a wild pony hug. I'll never forget that... ever. . . . #inspiredbynature #welivetoexplore #optoutside #keepitwild #alovefornaturesbest #lovelifeoutside #lovelywanderings #searchwandercollect #natureheals #embracingtheseasons #getlostclub #naturelovers #exploretocreate #stayandwander #folkscene  #landscapelovers #horse #hand #boy
