About us
Hi! We're Veronica & Brett!
We met in September 2019 at the University of Exeter's Expedition Society. Our first proper adventure together was an ExSoc camping trip to North Devon, where we learnt we could rely on each other even in difficult situations.
After dating for less than six months, we spent four months living with Veronica's family in the Netherlands during the first coronavirus lockdown. Since then, we've been life partners and adventure buddies. Living in Exeter has given us the wonderful opportunity to explore the gorgeous South West and we have loved hiking and camping on the coast and in Dartmoor and Exmoor.
We are both avid photographers who enjoy drone and film photography, meaning we always end up bringing way too many cameras on our adventures! We started this blog as a way to record our adventures and inspire others to enjoy the great outdoors.

Hello! Thank you so much for taking the time to check out our blog! I've recently finished my master's degree and feel pretty lost in the world right now. Being outside and going on adventures has helped ground me and helped me find peace in the middle of this stressful time. I love photography and especially enjoy shooting self portraits - I bring a dress on all of my adventures incase inspiration strikes!
With an undergraduate degree in Environmental Sciences, I'm aware of the environmental impact of my actions. In an attempt to minimise my environmental footprint, I've adopted a vegan diet and have not flown since July 2018.
I love slow travel and feel very lucky to have gotten the opportunity to really explore Devon with Brett. There are so many beautiful places here in the UK still left to explore! The South West Coast Path is honestly one of my favourite places in the world and I dream to one day be able to say I have hiked the whole thing!
I have no idea where my life is headed right now, but I know I will keep adventuring and spending time in Nature, hopefully with Brett next to me ♥

Hi! I'm a climate scientist and hiker. My calculations might be theoretical, but the joy I experience on trail is real. There's nothing I look forward to more than expansive views and good company. For the foreseeable future I plan to stay in Exeter, coding one day and hiking up hills the next.
Whether I'm at home or out and about, I like to capture these moments on camera. Photography gives me a sense of continuity and place in chaotic times. We hope you enjoy seeing our photos as much as we love taking them.
You can probably find me somewhere on the South West Coast Path, or in California's Sierra Nevada.
