Field Diaries

Every once in a while you are invited to be part of something quietly magical… Field Diaries is just that.

‘Field Diaries is a weekly series of unfiltered reflections from people living close to the wild. Each short diary is recorded in the field or at home and offers an intimate glimpse into a life shaped by nature, from monsoon rains in Borneo to the first frost on Ben Nevis, from night swims in moonlit lakes to the quiet of a diver after surfacing from the sea.

There is no host. These are not interviews. Just real voices noticing the world as it changes around them, and as they themselves change. Designed to be calming, hopeful, and deeply human, Field Diaries invites you to slow down and reconnect with the natural world, whether you are listening on the commute, in the car, or with a quiet coffee on a Sunday morning.’

I have shared openly about being scared of walking alone in my beloved mountains around my home in Cape Town, to the joy of exploring Pemba island for the first time. Birdsong filled minutes on Sardine Run, and traffic outside the office in the crazy runup to year end last year. Field Diaries invited me to sit down, and share.

This is your invitation to listen.
