A selection of my published work, as featured in WILD Magazine, We Are Explorers, the Tawny Frogmouth, Matador Network and CTV News, covering travel, local adventure, living abroad and news features.

WILD Magazine

An independent Australian wilderness adventure magazine, published since 1981. Delivering stories of conservation, outdoor life, and adventure from across the country, each issue features stunning photography and thoughtful, in-depth writing. My article in WILD explores the debate between overengineered walking tracks and more natural trails—asking the experts where the balance should lie

We Are Explorers

An online publication, launched in 2014, dedicated to spreading the power and excitement of the outdoors across Australia and internationally. As a freelance writer, I have covered new hybrid sports born out of Australia, chasing records in local running groups and even challenging myself to surf everyday for a month – all with a focus on infusing local adventure into everyday life.
