Photographs and recipes from the road
Landscapes worth the detour. Dinners worth the diversion.
We sold up, converted a Ford Transit, and pointed it at the horizon. This is where the photographs and the recipes live.

Chasing the light across the UK & Europe
Landscape and culture photography from wherever the van happens to be parked that week, wild Scottish glens, Atlantic coastlines, market towns and mountain passes.
Every frame is shot on the road and printed for your wall.
Stove
Proper food, cooked on two gas rings
A full galley kitchen, a tiny worktop and whatever's good at the local market. These are real recipes built for small spaces, big appetites and the occasional gale rocking the van.
Filmed for the kitchen, written down for you.

Switchbacks and Ragù
The Dolomites made the van work for it. The reward was pink mountains and a very dark bowl of pasta.

Crossing the Channel
Twenty-one miles of water and the small terror of driving on the wrong side.

An Office With a View
How the other half of this van earns its keep: laptops, leisure batteries and a 9am stand-up with the sea behind it.
