Meet the HindlesWorld Team
Hi there! I’m Jez, the founder of HindlesWorld. Welcome to my DIY Travel & Adventure Blog.
Armed with a GoPro, drone, DSLR, and a boundless spirit of adventure, I’ve travelled across Southeast Asia, the Maldives, Costa Rica, and beyond. When I’m not chasing sunsets or snorkelling in crystal-clear waters, I’m crafting travel content to inspire your next adventure.

Why I started HindlesWorld
The idea for HindlesWorld came from my passion for travel—exploring unique destinations and creating meaningful stories to share. After planning countless trips and projects, I realized there was a gap in the market for combining these interests into one cohesive platform. HindlesWorld was born to fill that gap, offering something unique to like-minded adventurers.

Embracing Local Cultures
Traveling isn’t just about visiting—it’s about immersing. We prioritize authentic experiences, such as staying in eco-lodges or learning local crafts or giving back.
For example, during our recent adventure in northern Vietnam, we purchased some Chinese writing pens to give to local children at a school, who didn’t have the funds to buy them.
Many of these children are tempted to join their mothers plying trade with tourists selling trinkets on the roads and paths around Sa Pa. Encouraging them to continue their education and give them a better chance in life was a small but joyful contribution we felt we’d made.
