It’s slowly coming up to the end of the semester (or too quickly if you have an upcoming dissertation deadline), and while many will be heading home for the summer, many will also stay around and want to explore Scotland. Today, I bring you some of my best holiday adventures during my time in Dundee, […]
Usually, job applications are short. Usually they are quick. Usually you send a CV and either get an interview within two weeks or not. Not grad jobs. If you have ever applied to one you will understand what I mean. You oftem start with a basic application, either providing a CV and cover letter or […]
January 1st 2022 – Many will be waking up hungover or at least exhausted from the past night’s celebrations, ringing in a new year, hopeful that this one may finally be pandemic free. Others will be heading out for a dook or exercising to start off their new resolutions.Not me this year – I got […]

In the spirit of adventure inspiration, I have dug out some past adventure video […]
While I do quite enjoy running, a big part of motivating myself to get out is exploring places I may not go otherwise. Today I thought I would share a few highlight places I’ve been in March so far, whether it motivates you to go out running or whether you find another place to explore […]
Anyone who knows me well will be used to regularly hearing about the weird adventure ideas I have come up with that specific week. This morning, I dragged one of my friends to cycle out to the beach before 7am to go swim in the freezing Tay at sunrise and then eat chocolate cake on […]
