Outdoor Adventures
Welcome to my outdoor adventures blog! Having three children, I am particularly interested in getting outside with my family. I aim to make every day an adventure, especially with my children, husband, dogs and friends. From exploring new cities to camping with the dogs, we like an adventure. We live near the sea and forest and explore every day.
Read blog posts about fun outdoor activities and travel experiences. See my travel blog for blog posts about sights to see in New York, things to do in Helsinki with kids, cooking with a Swedish Torch, visiting Lapland on a budget, geocaching, 5 seasonal events for families to visit in the UK and more.
You can also see reviews of books, kit, clothing, product and places.
Current Adventures
I am currently researching and writing a book for Vertebrate Publishing, Wild Swimming in London and South East England.
My next big adventure is entering the UK Cold Water Swimming Championships in January 2025! Follow me at @natashastarseeker on Instagram to follow my adventure.
A recent big adventure was doing a solo adventure paddle around the Helsinki archipelago of remote natural islands, courtesy of the Adventure Queens Grant.
Another recent adventure was taking on a SUP race in the Alps in 2024!
About Me
I have a BA (Hon) in Creative Writing, and have worked as an editor, writer, journalist and blogger, with 20 years’ experience.
I have always had a passion for travel, outdoor adventures and inspiring others to lead an active lifestyle. I love living in the country with my husband, three children and two dogs, and hiking and paddleboarding. We have always had adventures in different places and so instead of writing rambling social media posts about it I blog about it instead!
