🎋I don’t talk about slow living as a subject on here very much, but I hope it still somehow comes across in the content I post and the places I visit.

One of the reasons I’ve always shied away from talking more about living slower, is the fear of being portrayed as ‘lazy’. We live in a world that weirdly glorifies being busy, but as someone who has to be always ‘on’ for work (social media never sleeps after all), I have to make real efforts to switch off and step back from work.

Being busy doesn’t make you good at your job - there, I’ve said it.
It’s taken me a few years but I’ve come to realise there is so much more value to be had in a life that’s lived a little slower.
Even if I have a stressful (or busy) week now, I still make sure I take time out for me and I’ve come to appreciate those simple, small pleasures I’d learnt to completely overlook before.
Slowing down has just generally made me a much happier person and I’ve made a promise to myself that I’ll start talking about it more here ✨

A little throwback to what ended up becoming our favourite breakfast spot in Hong Kong 🍳☕️ In a bid to save money but not feel cooped up at home, Jim and are heading out today for an autumnal walk (and maybe some filming..) 🍁🍂

Those autumnal tones 🍂🍁 It’s that time of year when everything looks really beautiful here, even in this full, miserable weather!
We flew the drone over the wood we usually run through - it’s incredible how different the perspective is from up here 🌲

#Ad Venturing out to explore in between the rain showers. It’s been raining pretty much non-stop this week but thankfully it stayed dry enough for one afternoon of adventuring!

We decided to explore a little closer to home this time. We packed a little bag of snacks, grabbed our rain jackets and a couple of @fourpure beers and we were set for an afternoon of autumnal walking.
Inspired by adventure, Fourpure is a London based brewery with travel at their hearts. Not only does their beer taste great, I’m also completely in love with their newly designed packaging. Exploring their taproom on the Bermondsey beer mile is top of my list - The beer in shot is the Basecamp Pils Lager but my personal fave was the Juicebox Citrus IPA! Swipe for a little snippet of our day! #fourpure #inspiredbyadventure #beerart #craftbeer

Still dreaming of these Siargao palm forests 🌴
It’s started to turn very autumnal now as beautiful as it is, I’m not okay with this cold. I’m trying to imagine myself in this dappled sunlight rather than where I am now - huddled under a winter duvet wondering whether it’s finally time to put the heating on...

One of @jimodo_’s incredible shots of the indoor waterfall at Gardens by the Bay, Singapore.
The early morning light here was incredible and we spent close to four hours wandering the glasshouses - the perfect morning 🌿
