Even as a young lad I often found myself roaming the woods with little more than solitude and thoughts for my company. It was a time of great joy and discovery, time which eventually led me to take on writing, music and photography. Since then that old longing has only grown, and in the wilderness I feel truly at home.

Though outward, in nature I mostly like to keep to myself. It’s one of those bastions where I escape to after a long day’s work. But join me by the fire, however, and I’ll never back away from a good discussion of anything related to hiking, sights, folklore or northern mythology.
