Blog update, New Youtube and new Tech.

So, I decided a while back that I was going to start a new YouTube channel to document my outdoor adventures. Hiking, wild camping, generally being outdoors and getting back in touch with nature. 

In a step towards this I have a bit of a rebranding going on. I created a new YouTube channel, though I still need to decide on the final name. I have been planning some excursions and the kind of content I would like to go over, still much a work in progress, but definitely taking you fine internet people on adventures with me, seeing some epic scenery, talking about places, gear, and the benefits of getting outdoors. I also want to cover off things like planning for your adventure and the life situations and logistics that might cause friction in doing so, and hopefully help you develop some processes and strategies to enable yourself to do the same. It has been a long journey for me to get to where I am now.

I have drawn a lot of inspiration from the likes of Haze Outdoors, Wildbeare and Fables and Fells, to name but a few. I have found doing this kind of thing is good for the heart legs and noggin, and in the last year of doing all of this, I have been thoroughly enjoying it. I have taken some epic photos. I have been to places I never conceived of, and met some amazing people along the way. 

After some research (and boy was it a hard choice!) I have bought a GoPro Hero12 to enable better vlogging and video capture of these adventures and the scenery.

I may create a new blog page to interact with this channel, and the work I will be putting in, but for the time being, I will be posting here, and hoping to up my rate of posting of all things geeky and nerdy, and getting out and having fun (Look! It's a geeky toy ok, don't look at me like that...)
