Conscious Photography
From taking a Bronica medium format camera, with only 12 photos per roll of film on my first expeditions as an assistant, to creating features for leading outdoor-focused magazines and exploring cameraless photography with groups in the forests of our home village in Slovenia, visual images and how they function is a huge part of my professional history and inspires my approach to photography on my trips.
Full Circle: An Accessible Adventure.
At the end of June I welcomed Coleg Sir Gar and Coleg Ceredigion with an amazing neurodiverse group of learners for our very first accessible college adventure!
Reflections on growth
As spring approaches here in Slovenia, the first flowers are starting to bloom in the forests, hills and mountains around our home in Slovenia.
More to Explore is now entering its third year, and spring feels like a natural time to reflect on our own growth. I have welcomed close to 100 guests on my tours, with adults, young people, teachers, friends, families, and many solo travellers trusting me to create an unforgettable journey through Slovenia’s wild places.
WAAC Backcountry Snowshoeing 2024 - Guest reflection from Lauren Blackwell.
We put our layers back on and ventured out for our first snowshoeing experience! The snow was now abundant enough at 1633 metres and we journeyed uphill smiling like children with a new toy at Christmas. Before we headed back to the van Mikaela guided us through correct use of the Avalanche Trio (something we became very familiar with over the trip); Transceivers to locate companions in an avalanche, probe to search and shovel to dig. Back at the hotel we thawed out with a sauna and an early night.
