Just joined after lurking for a spell.
Wrong side of 50 now, but have camped, backpacked ,hillwalked etc from before my 1st birthday. Been out of it for a spell, as work and health got in the way a bit, but we (wife and I) are looking at getting back into camping.
Not entirely sure if I really qualify for the bushcaft part, but I like the feel of this forum, and I have, for example spent entire camping holidays cooking on an open fire, but I don't think you are going to get me sleeping out under a tarp, I'm thinking more a lafuma Recliner :-)
Now a professional ecologist (both consultant and lecturer), but once a professional photographer ( for 14 years).
Still very little time for things, but I am particularly keen to develop some craft skills.
