He has busked and hitchhiked through over 40 different countries and sailed across the Atlantic to Dominica in 2017.

As an activist in climate emergency mode he hung a banner over the QE2 bridge in 2022 and spent the following 16 months in prison for it, where he also set up and ran a choir for other prisoners called
