About

Hey, I’m Margaux — the girl behind this blog. Outdoor Chics is for those ladies who love a bit of adventure. For those who, without batting an eyelid, would trade an outing to the local mall for a day of getting tossed around in the sea and then falling asleep under the stars. The outdoor chics.

Outdoor Chics is here to inspire you to try new things, challenge yourself and live life to the fullest. It features adventures, gear reviews, videos, sport, challenges and loads of other inspiring content.

If I achieve one thing I hope you smile and feel like you’ve done something worthwhile. Go on, get out there and enjoy some outside time. Oh and one more thing — a camera makes a great companion!

The girl behind the blog

I’m a freelance journalist with a passion for that big beautiful world out there. Hailing from the southern tip of Africa, I grew up thinking running around barefoot and collecting grasshoppers in glass jars was normal. The musty smell of grass and wild flowers, the heat of the sun on your skin, the aching feeling in your legs after a long hike, salty beach hair, the adrenalin rush from conquering a hard climb. That’s what I love and it’s what I love writing about. You can find my work in The Great Outdoors, Outdoor Fitness, Trail, Creative Bloq and Triathlon Plus.
