What’s this website for?
The website is run is by me – Tim – because expeditions have changed my life and I want to help other people who are interested in adventures.
Everything on this website is free (except for my books). As well as the 600 articles I’ve written on my blog and all of the expedition resources I’ve compiled, I offer free advice so anyone who wants help can just ask. I do this because I love expeditions and I like helping people.
For five years I covered the costs of this website myself. Then, for a period. I make a small amount of money from my equipment reviews – if you click a link then buy something, I get a small percentage at no cost to you. I used some of this money to fund an expedition grant for those who need some cash to get an idea off the ground.
About Tim
Tim used to call himself an “adventurer” but these days he’s mostly an accountant. He’s been on lots of expeditions all over the world and supported over 100 other adventures across all seven continents.
He believes that adventure should be available to all, regardless of background, expertise, money or time. He started this website in 2009 to encourage more people to live and now runs it in his spare time. Most of his expeditions are now undertaken with his wife Laura and, latterly, with three kids in tow.
