Two men. 33 Years growing up side by side, and we’re still figuring it out. We’ve changed jobs, hairlines and postcodes, but we never stopped choosing each other. Love isn’t loud. It’s steady. It’s staying. ❤️ #valentines

Three weeks of storms have finished off what was left of our chicken enclosure roof, so we’re patching it up till the spring. We’re testing a solar generator, recycling cardboard into fuel, and being honest about isolation in the Highlands. 🤯

Still love the quiet. Still love home. 🏡
But I’m learning that too much time alone with my own head isn’t great for me. 🤯
I’m not brilliant at making connections, but that doesn’t mean I don’t need it. 🫣
So this is me acknowledging that something needs to shift, gently, in the right direction. ♥️

In 2000, I combined my love of naturism with my passion for teaching fitness.
Over time, it became about far more than training. It helped people move better, feel stronger, and be more comfortable in their own body.

Not a rainbow.
Not a lens flare.
This is a sun dog. A companion Sun created when ice crystals bend light high in the atmosphere.
Cold air. Low Sun. Highlands doing their thing.

Before the stills warm and the day begins, the Highlands put on a show. Fire in the sky 🔥 and purity in the water from the melted snow ❄️ That’s why our local whisky is the best! 🥃

Watching this back, it’s strange how quickly “normal” disappears.
Five days snowed in, no road access, and the slow realisation that we were properly cut off.
This vlog is simply what those days were like.

Cut off by a blizzard for five days in the Scottish Highlands. 🥶
Snow drifts over a metre deep, no road access, and the croft buried. ❄️
This video is a quiet, honest look at what those days were really like.
