Introducing Kevin Pampling of Kev’s Climbing Service: a tree surgeon, photographer and self-published author, living in the Perth Hills, Australia. A brutal tractor crash forced small town Kev into a new world, both physically and spiritually. Angry and resistant to change, the bitter bushman found himself on a journey of inner growth that took him from Australia’s searing outback to the icy mountains of Norway’s fjordland. Inspired by a picture of Geirangerfjord in a magazine, Kevin’s heart told him: “You have to go there!”

Journey with Kev as he shares the value of following his heart. Being present and acting on his intuition was the key to creating: “Don’t Take My Advice – I Need It”, a book about his journey that inspires others who also have a dream to claim it, with passion, and follow their heart. Have a laugh at Kev’s expense for he is, as he says: “The best bad example I know.”

“In a time of endless New Age speak, Kev's Bush Aussie vernacular is heartwarming, refreshing, and above all an achingly funny road to enlightenment...”
