An early morning run with the birds up to the top of Brandenburg’s second highest “mountain” (you run the hills you have). Absolutely lovely start to the day.

The latest long read on The Winding Trail is from the wild and windswept western coastline of North Jutland in Denmark.
It is a story of storm surges and crooked trees, lighthouses that have been moved to stop them falling into the sea, and the poetic prose of Dorthe Nors...
Morning light above the Müllerstraße… #boulderingberlin

They did it! Congratulations to Nepal’s cricketers who won their first ever T20 World Cup match against Scotland… having taken England so close in the first match of the tournament. Brilliant stuff… hope all my mates in Pokhara and Kathmandu are proud and having a party!
A morning walk through the wintery city… strolling Berlin #adventuresbeyondthefrontdoor
