Home
I am Alice Morrison. My home is in the Peak District of England in the
midst of the beautiful hills and I take full advantage of them with
plenty of biking and hiking. I work in the creative media and am
interested in everything film, TV and digital. I also speak fluent
Arabic and have spent a lot of time in the Middle East.
I love adventures both for work and for play and 2012 is going to be
busy. In 2011 I raced across Africa as part of the Tour D’Afrique
http://www.tourdafrique.com/
- so I have to keep the momentum up.
Play First: In August I am going to be cycling across Australia
for Guide Dogs for the Blind
http://www.guidedogs.org.uk
The trip is from Perth to Sydney in a month. There are going to be some
very, very long, hard days in the saddle and some nasty headwinds.
I am starting my training in January with a 9 day kick-start fitness
course in Kenya with Wild Fitness
http://www.wildfitness.com/
They have a really interesting philosophy which I think makes good
sense. We evolved and are geared up to be hunter gatherers but modern
life means we have moved far away from that. Wild fitness promote wild
eating, wild moving and wild living as a way of keeping strong, fit and
healthy in the world we live in.
Work Next: I have been working in different types of media – TV,
publishing and online, and most recently in strategy and business
development through AMO Media. From January, I will be setting up and
running a huge European Union Training Programme for the BBC. The
project is based in Cairo and aims to provide professional training and
support to journalists right across the Middle East and many of
the former Soviet Republics.
It promises to be an amazing experience as we help the countries’ top
journalists face all the challenges brought in the wake of the political
and economic upheaval and regeneration.
There are updates on Twitter (VAM69) and I’ll be blogging http://aliceoutthere.wordpress.com/.
I hope you find it interesting and if you want to get in touch....
