My Story

Hey I'm Gareth and thanks for reading My Story. 

​

Everything in life is an Adventure? Don't you agree? And there is nothing I like better than being outside having adventures. 

​

Adventuring has always been in my life, from being a small child and heading into the woods with my friends (you could back then) to make camps, damn streams, jump rivers and generally have fun getting filthy. 

​

My adventures progressed as I began Scouting, which has been core to my life ever since.  More time in the woods, but now in the dark, running around playing wide games.  Up the local campsite, camping, lighting fires having fun outdoor adventures.  Night hikes, competition hikes, long distance walks and dare I say it my first 'marathon' - walking the Seven Sisters Marathon as a 14 year old, with my fellow Scouts.  Awesome adventure. Blisters were good too. 

​

Then onto Venture Scouts and introductions to mountain adventures, climbing Snowdon in blizzards, battling the Gables in the Lake District in fog and sideways rain.  And then international travel adventures, jamborees in Holland and Australia, stopping in Hong Kong, cycle touring in Sweden and travelling around Denmark. 

​

Scouting lit a fire and a passion in me. For the outdoors, for nature, for Adventure. 

​

Go have Adventures. And remember, Everything is an Adventure, Love the Adventure.

​

Enjoy this collection of photos, stories, adventures. If you have a question let me know. 

​

Love
