🚨NEW VIDEO 🚨
Glencoe in Scotland is one of the UK’s most incredible hiking routes… but with most visitors arriving into the Scottish Highlands by bus & train at Fort William, is it possible to reach Glencoe by bus & head out for a great hike before catching a bus back to Fort William?

Well, that’s exactly what I attempt in this video as I embark on a journey to tackle the Devil’s Staircase hike, which guides you to the West Highland Way’s highest point.

Watch the video at the link in bio now & comment below if you’d like to explore Glencoe too.

It’s as iconic as they come 🇮🇹🏟️⚽️
Is it in your stadium bucket list?

Milan’s San Siro - one of world football’s most iconic stadiums.

It was designed by Ulisse Stacchini, the architect who also designed Milan’s Centrale Railway Station.

With a capacity of 80,000 (restricted to 75,000 for football matches) it is one of the world’s biggest stadiums & the largest in Italy.

It serves as the home ground for both & .

Away from football, the stadium is set to host the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics in 2026.

The stadium is easily reachable from Milan’s city centre using the No. 16 tram or the M5 metro line.

It’s been a big week in Glasgow as the oldest international football fixture took place between Scotland & England for the 116th time.

The friendly marked the anniversary of the first ever international football match which took place in 1872 at the West of Scotland Cricket Club where a Scotland eleven took on England.

In this week’s video I travel across Glasgow starting from where international football began passing Ibrox & Celtic Park before arriving at the current day home of Scottish football, Hampden Park.

Give it a watch to discover how Glasgow is undoubtedly a football city.

Back in Dubai this week, where I launched (formally known as The Sports Explorer).

It’s great to be back, a home away from home & I’m being reminded of all the brilliant sport & adventure highlights .dubai & the UAE has to offer.

I love travel & exploring new destinations, diving into their sport & adventure highlights, culture & heritage as I tell the story of our world through sport & adventure but it is also a delight to revisit past homes & places that shaped me as a person. I have a lot to thank the UAE for, and it is a country I’ll always love re-visiting.

You can watch my video stories of the country’s must do adventures at the link in bio on the UAE Adventures playlist.

Putting this out there but the Seven Hills of Edinburgh walk has to be the city’s best walk.

14 mikes, 7 hills, ?? hours… what a great way to see the city on two feet from its natural beauty, historic centre & Kraft suburbs.

Watch the full video guide at the link in bio now and let me know if this is something you’ll do when in Edinburgh.

There’s also an annual race - the winning fines from 2022 are incredible & I tell you what they are in the video.
