Incredible couple of weeks out at Burning Mountain constructing Nayra 🐦‍🔥🔥

An 8-metre-high phoenix, dreamt up by the legend @dionvandewal and brought to life through the passion, creativity and graft of an incredible team of people.

From the first pieces coming together to watching her rise — it’s been a privilege to be part of such a unique build ❤️‍🔥

One of the world’s true volcanic gems and possibly one of my favourite places on earth!

Exploring the incredible landscape of Vanuatu Island with Canada Goose and definitely putting the new Snow Goose SS26 Collection through its paces descending into Mount Yasur.

Built my dream cottage in the Highlands ⛰️🤌

Took a little longer than I hoped, but balancing earning, trips away and life made it slightly more than ‘just a weekend project’.

Skilled up on a whole lot of traditional and new building techniques.
Tradition Scottish slate, stone masonry, lime pointing and plastering, plumbing, made a kitchen and furniture from reclaimed Pitch Pine and a pretty sweet front door with a Scottish flag panel 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Big thanks to everyone who gave me a hand along the way, Leighn and especially @razza58 who helped me throughout the build, really couldn’t have done it without you.
Appreciate yas!

Still some bits to do, but time for a holiday 🐊🇵🇬
