Social Media and Blog Update
This is just a quick post to update the Blog which I've sadly neglected for over a year. It was my intention when I started the Blog for it to my main outlet where I shared all things hiking including my walking routes, Wainwright tally, news, gear and reveiws.
However, soon after setting up the Blog, I set up accounts on Twitter (well, started using it and changed name to match this Blog) and on Instagram in order to promote and help the Blog gain attention. I wasn't expecting for it to completely take over and quickly become my main outlet aswell as putting me in touch with a whole massive online hiking community with a wealth of knowledge across the board. It's offered me lots of oppurtunities to get out on hikes with a host of different people and helped show me lots of fantastic areas to hike I might otherwise have missed.
I've also had the oppurtunity to work with various brands involved in the hiking world from across various fields such as food, clothing, apps, footwear and various other items which I've really enjoyed and been glad to be a part of. This has also offered me lots of new oppurtunities to get to different areas and try out new things to do (or rediscover them!)
Lots have happened over the past year or so that I've got to try and catch up with on this Blog and I will be doing my best to do just that. I've gone from 66 to 136 Wainwrights with an aim of getting to 150/160 by the end of this year to give myself a chance of completing them next year. I've grown my Instagram to nearly 10,000 followers (at time of writing!) and been on lots of walks, adventures, wild camps and Instameets.
So that's all for now, lets not leave it as long next time!!
