I write long-form travel rooted in slow journeys and quiet encounters, tracing how distance, landscape and human connection transform one another. I’m drawn to remote places where movement and silence redefine belonging.

I write long-form narrative travel shaped by time, distance and encounter. My work follows slow journeys, where people and place shape one another, and separation gives way to something shared.

Drawn to remote and marginal landscapes, I often travel on foot over long distances, documenting extended journeys through sparsely inhabited regions. I’m interested in how movement changes our experience of silence, and how silence reshapes what it means to belong.

In 2026 I was a finalist for the Bradt New Travel Writer of the Year at the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards and was commended in 2025.
