Iceland by far has the most epic waterfalls i’ve seen with practically no hiking which is ridiculous. I spent 10 days road tripping the island and it’s honestly not even enough time so i’ll have to back! Going to landmannalauger was probably my favourite but make sure you hire a 4wd! #iceland #travel #photography

i’ve been to most of the most picturesque places in the world, iceland, the faroe islands, banff, the dolomites and more but New Zealand to this day is still my favourite. Mountains, waterfalls, glaciers, beaches it really had it all and i’ve gone over 10 times at this point. Can’t wait for the 11th trip! #travel #nz #cinematic #photography

wait until the end to see the best decision of my life šŸ‘€ A few months ago I returned my laptop for good saying goodbye to any prospect of returning to my old job. The truth is before I quit I was on a 1.5 year career break so if i really wanted to I had a small safety net that I could hopefully return to my job. point is there are so many things you can do to help yourself take a leap and pursue your passions. (but make sure you have savings so you can actually live šŸ˜…) I was obviously very risk averse but even if failed as a creator I could always get another job if things didn’t work out. Thank you to everyone who has been around and supported me throughout this journey, definitely just the beginning and go get out there and chase your dreams. It’s almost been 2 years since my last day at the job but i have no regrets and life hasn’t been the same since! #travel #career #sydney

a few months ago i spent 4 days chasing a glimpse of Japan’s snow monsters. They are trees that are packed with snow and ice which require the perfect amount if wind to form these otherworldly creatures. Being at the top of Mount Zao what people don’t mention is how quickly the weather changes and more often than not you’ll simply get a white out. On my last day in the area I finally caught a real glimpse of these creatures! so amazing to see and if you like snowboarding or skiing zao is definitely worth a visit. graded with my LUTs in my bio! #travel #cinematic #japan

photos from one of the most extraordinary places in the world. Impossible floating lakes, lush greens and mountains dropping straight into the ocean, the faroe islands is somewhere you need to see for yourself. We spent a week here driving around the cluster of islands and i’d come back in a heartbeat. Last shot was from dunnesdrangar with @guidetofaroeislands #travel #photography #faroe

Let’s go hiking! ā›°ļøšŸŒ±šŸŒ€ Andy and I spent a week in amongst the Dolomiti, it was absolutely magical to say the least. We can’t wait to share more of it with you! We actually didn’t get around to sharing much of this trip with you because when we went mid last year, it was a trip squeezed between a trip to Alaska, Iceland and the Faroe Islands! So as you can imagine, the backlog of footage was absolutely insane. There was barely any time to go through the footage and edit it all, so here I am, 8 months later, bringing the Dolomites to you 🄹 I hope you enjoy, and as always, I hope you feel inspired to get outside. I’ll see you out there šŸ¦‹

there’s nothing like a trip to Yosemite! We visited in spring and unfortunately some hikes were closed. regardless we caught a sunrise at tunnel view and it was incredible and also extremely early! We then headed to the valley and meadows which get light way later and that’s an amazing way to spend your morning. #travel #california #yosemite #cinematic

the last photo is literally a restaurant which is why hawaii has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world šŸ‘€ These were all taken in Oahu which is the main island but there are so many more unbelievable landscapes on Kauai, Maui and other islands! Definitely get out here for a visit! #travel #hawaii #usa #photography

it’s always been my dream to dive in Okinawa and we actually skipped sakura season for this adventure! Most of our diving was straight off the shore in Ishigaki which is super rare to say the least. Shot all these underwater clips with the @djiglobal action 6 which is what I think is the best action camera right now! We also shared the waters with the black banded sea krait which is the 7th most venomous snake in the world yet they were so majestic! I’m definitely going back A D #travel #okinawa #japan #diving
