Rory Oates

Rory is that random person you see sitting at the cafe jotting down notes. Rory caught the travel bug early and writes about his wanderings as a way of honouring the beauty and truth in the finer details of travel that live just outside of the photo frame. When not reading or writing, you can find Rory baking sourdough, hiking, trail running, surfing, goat-boating or watching/playing sport with a bat or ball of any variation. All of this activity is fuelled by a passion for cuisines of the world which he'll tell you is a way of bringing a slice of travels into the home!
