Rory has a full-time job as a designer, but uses every available moment outside of work to be in the outdoors adventuring.

He’s known for his evening excursions in the Lake District, exploring places when everyone else has gone home.

He shows that you don’t necessarily have to quit your job or flip your life to have some extraordinary adventures.

Rory took me on a hike for the podcast in the woodland and moorland of Anglezarke in Lancashire.

We even recorded some of it in a den in the woods!
