Nic Hilditch-Short

Editor

Nic has probably been to more countries than anyone else on the team. Nic and their partner – also known as the Roaming Renegades – have been to over 70 countries so far, and the list is still growing.

There is one place that stood out, and that was Vietnam. There, Nic learnt to ride a manual motorbike and headed off on a 5000km trip through the wild landscapes and remote villages of this fascinating country.

Coming from a background of Fine Arts, plus an MA in Design, Nic joined the team in October 2021 and is now a senior editor specialising in Europe, Southeast Asia, Australia and generally meddling around in the gear department! They also head up the photography and content strategy departments plus managing external content and causing chaos on Pinterest!
