Greetings, fellow adventurer!

Greetings, I’m Aaron- a balding, UK-based, Midlands-born ex-British Army grunt turned Travel and camping obsessive, dad joke enthusiast, a separated Dad to two little boys who’ve stress-tested more gear than crash-test dummies with a Ribena juice box. Lab conditions don’t account for mud, meltdowns, or ‘helpful’ toddler reassembly. After years of surviving field exercises (and now parenting “adventures” like ”Why is he eating mud again?”), I’ve decided to dedicate my life to helping you avoid outdoor disasters.

That £20 tent won’t survive my little terrors, let alone a British summer.

Why Trust My Chaos-Tested Advice?

Military-Grade BS Detector: The Army taught me to pack light and sleep rough. Fatherhood? To brew coffee one-handed, while stopping the WWE Wrestling match and assembling a tent simultaneously (who said men can’t multitask).

Camping Misadventures: I’ve weathered monsoons in a polyester coffin and refereed sibling wars in a campervan. I’ll save you from both.

Luggage Warfare: I’ve drop-kicked suitcases down staircases, tested “unbreakable” thermoses against toddler throws, and mastered the art of ”How to fit 3 people’s gear into one bag (without breaking a zip)”.

What You’ll Find Here:

Camping Guides: From “How to Silence a Tent-Zip at 3AM (Parenting Level: Ninja)” to “Why That ‘Family-Sized’ Sleeping Bag is a Lie.”

Travel Tech: Kid-proof tablets, chargers that survive juice spills, and possibly GPS trackers for when your 5-year-old “explores” into a hedge.

Dad-Approved Adventure Life Hacks: Spoiler: “Compact” campervans are only cozy if you love stepping on Minecraft figures barefoot at midnight.

Look, I’m not here to sell you survivalist fantasies or pretend I’ve wrestled bears. I’m just a guy who loves the outdoors and traveling—whether I’m trekking solo or herding my two boys through a forest while they debate whether pine cones are edible. (Spoiler: They’re not.)

My mission? To help you find gear that works for you, so you can spend less time fussing and more time making memories. I’ve learned the hard way – through suitcase-weight nightmares, toddler meltdowns, and tents that collapsed faster than my patience on a rainy camping trip. Good reliable gear shouldn’t be a luxury, and if I can help you get your kids (or yourself) off screens and into wilder places?

That’s the real win.
