Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
Im a professional slackliner and I founded the UK's first slackline based social enterprise.
I would like to think i'm a very open minded person, I like to travel and participate in new experiences, i like to push myself in new ways to see what the limits of life are.
I have lived all over the uk and numerous places in Europe and the Middle East. I have a keen interest in the outdoors be-it Climbing, Mountaineering, Kayaking, Mountain biking, Running, Slacklining or just a pleasant walk through the woods,down the river or along the coast.
Instagram is @BensOnAnotherAdventure if you want to scan my social media.
PHILOSOPHY
The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.
Climbers often claim, and it is often true that it is about the about the journey, not the summit.
