Chinotto
Explore the menu I like trying new things and especially new tastes, be it food or drink. Some time ago I had the pleasure of trying something different from an authentic Italian restaurant in Manchester, and it left a lasting impression on me. I present to you: Chinotto, made from the juice of the fruit of…

Freestyle
Around a year and a half ago I picked up swimming again. Hands-down it’s been the best thing I’ve done for my physical health and mental wellbeing. It’s tough, but I have an absolute blast each time I go for a swim. I’m now part of a community of swimmers that meet regularly and get…

To infinity, and beyond!
That’s what cinema is to me; escapism, the firing of the imagination. A place of wonder and delight! And that’s why ‘movie night’ is special for me. Whether it’s curled up on the sofa watching a thriller in the midst of a storm (making sure the doors are locked!) or going out with friends on…

These boots are made for walkin’
Walking is a big part of my life. Most weekends you’ll find me up a mountain of some sort, and these boots get me there. I’m enjoying the reflective nature of this photography project and my subject(s) are a worthy inclusion in the ‘Seven Days of Self’ series as my second shot.

Come with me on an adventure
I love to travel and for my first shot in the ‘Seven Days of Self’ series I wanted something to represent this aspect of my life along with the amazing and often surreal experiences that travel provides.

Who I Am
For the relaunch of my blog, I thought I’d start by introducing myself. I’m an analyst, humanitarian, active citizen. That’s me! I listen to people’s stories; their hopes and dreams, their fears. I’ve realised that the more I hear, the less I truly know about the world. My hunger for knowledge and truth is stronger…
