Make adventures while the sun shines
Hi !
Sarah here filling in for Emily while she is off on her own epic adventure!
Now it's September, it feels like summer is over and autumn is looming on the horizon, but that doesn't mean we can't still be outside and enjoying ourselves. Many of us like the winter and we're counting down the weeks until the first snow so we can get out and play in it! Or if that isn't your thing, maybe you've got winter sun adventures planned? I'm off to Sicily sport climbing in October and I can't wait! In the mean time I'll be "enjoying" gritstone season when the weather allows.
Issue 5 is currently being printed and hopefully will be landing on your doorsteps in the next week. Again we have jammed it full of inspiring stories of women to brighten up your day and give you all sorts of ideas for your next adventures. Please tell us about them on our social media! Even better, why not contribute to Issue 6?
