Atlas & Boots is an outdoor travel blog covering thrilling activities in far-flung places be it swimming with whales in the South Pacific or trekking the great ranges of Asia. The founders, photographer Peter Watson and author Kia Abdullah, started on opposite ends of the outdoor spectrum. In fact, a week after they met, Peter went off to Africa to climb Kilimanjaro while Kia remained warmly cocooned by her desk as writers prefer to be. Over the ensuing years, they drew each other towards the middle; to what they describe as outdoorsy-ish.
