On the doorstep was inspired by the every day adventures we had begun to throw ourselves in to and wanted others to enjoy similar exciting triumphs in their local area.
We being Em and Zo- quick bio!
We met at a climbing group in Milan whilst we were both living there. Then the pandemic came, a few life changes hit us and we’ve both since relocated: Em to the delightful Ligurian coast and Zo to London. Having both lived abroad for years though, we’re no strangers to hopping around here and there, so it’s rare that our content gets tied to just the one location. Originally Em’s roots are in Norfolk (East of England) whilst Zo is from North Yorkshire (northern England), giving us both another outdoor playground on our home doorsteps.
We’re firm believers in getting into the outdoors being for anyone. Not just those who are experts or pro athletes or already live in an extreme climate. But really anyone, and everyone, can find a slice of the outdoors. We’ve both been dabbled in multiple outdoor pursuits.. Climbing, Hiking, Cycling, Paddle Boarding, Kayaking, Skiing, Surfing, Snowboarding… to name a few! We’re relatively normal girls (or as normal as anyone can be!) we’re not outdoor nuts with superhuman strength but love fresh air and new activities which we endeavour to share with you all.
Some of our content also focuses on wider issues that pop up in our daily life including mindfulness, reading, sustainability & environmental concerns… most things that 20-30 year olds encounter and ponder.
We’re true believers in grassroots, quality growth movements so onthedoorstep is a work in progress. We’re always open to ideas and hoping to add and refine more as we learn and develop. Shout if you have any ideas!
Feel free to get to know us both better on our instagram:
