Let me Introduce Myself
A harmonious fusion, that’s the day Set To Hike was created.
Why hello there! My name is Hayley Warnock, hailing from a small town in Victoria, Australia. Growing up in a rural town, you learn to make your own fun, and it helps when the kangaroos are the neighbourhood watch of your backyard. Hiking soon moulded into my life, as with my appreciation for the wonders of this spinning blue planet. I moved to Melbourne to study film and television at university, and subsequently became a video editor in the industry. It was one of these days sitting at my desk, editing the talking faces of people I’ve never met, a thought sparked. Why not merge my love for filmmaking with hiking? A harmonious fusion, that’s the day Set To Hike was created.
In short, I’m a hiking YouTuber with the purpose of providing guidance and inspiration to other adventure seekers. I showcase trails with a big focus on multi-day hiking. I dispense pearls of dirt wisdom, critique gear (nicely), concoct dehydrated delicacies fit for the trail and occasionally toss in eccentric musings that I cleverly persuade you are somewhat connected to the hiking world.
Some Favourites ⬇️
🎬 Favourite Film: Please don’t make me choose I LOVE the cinema. Ok fine. Pirates of the Caribbean or Another Earth or Shutter Island. Should I just do a top 10?
📺 TV Show: Doctor Who, The Walking Dead, Black Sails. I may have been a pirate in a past life. This would explain my historical interest into the golden age of piracy.
📚 Book: Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker. A prerequisite for being a human being.
🎵 Band: Alt-J or Hermanos Gutiérrez. Also can’t go past a bit of Michael Jackson.
☀️ Season: Summer. Convinced i’ve been genetically modified to survive the heat of global warming. Yet will burn in the 2 seconds it takes to go retrieve the mail. I’m not sure how that works either.
🌈 Colour: Orange.
🐅 Animal: Tiger. That makes me a cat person.
🥟 Food: Dumplings. I lived on this earth for 20 years before a friend introduced me to a dumpling restaurant in Melbourne. A gift from the gods.
