"I read most often when I am on the road, travelling on my journeys. In cars, on planes, trains... I'..." — Steve Backshall

Most of my job is out in the wild, miles away from the public and it's nice to see people and hear what they like and don't like about the shows. It's really helpful.

I want to share my passion for the world's beauty and give others new reasons to care.

I am very driven by things that scare and frighten me, and things that might be tough for me.

I honestly expected me learning Welsh to be met with a certain amount of cynicism, even outright hostility from some. But that hasn't happened.
