Hi Everyone,

My name is Michael, I am from South Africa, I love trail running, road cycling, the outdoors and nature intrigues and excites me. I love taking photos both landscapes, and close ups, I tend to try and get different perspectives on anything i see in the great outdoors :-) I am an Architect with interests mostly in design, patterns, aesthetics particularly by the greatest artist of all time "Mother Nature."

I just joined travel feed by accidentally using the #travelfeed hashtag without knowing the particulars regarding the requirements etc. Fortunately I got a comment/message from you guys explaining a bit about the workings of travel feed and so here I am.

Just me, behind an old vintage camera given to me by my late Dad who loved photography. This is a gorgeous Voigtländer. Love and cherish this, it still works, and means a lot to me.

Still learning, and getting to understand how @travelfeed works. Please let me know if there is anything specific I need to be doing.

After doing a tiny bit of research and reading up about what travel feed is about, it seems like a great place to put out some interesting and fun travel content, which I intend to do. Thank you to those involved in creating and maintaining this platform/feed.

If anyone out there has any advice for me I would greatly appreciate it, and also if i am doing anything wrong please feel free to let me know.

I do a lot of posts in and around South Africa, mostly around KwaZulu-Natal, Western Cape, Northern Cape area, a lot of trail running and road cycling and general exploring with my dog George.

My dog George giving me the crazy eye, he makes me laugh and brings my soul joy, and is my best friend and loyal inspiration running buddy.
