The Simple Things

Editors Notes

Lisa Sykes, The Simple Things editor, introduced the June 2016 issue with a short story about her experiences with Creative Escapes. “One weekend, I went to Norway with my camera, and came back a photographer. That’s the power of leaving the world behind and immersing yourself in something new and different. A well run course (run by Creative Escapes), be it photography, bushcraft or mindfulness, is always a satisfying experience. I’d always been intimidated by my camera, but with some advice, I took some of my favourite pictures. I hold my camera more confidently now. And that’s a long lasting holiday souvenir.”
