Hamza has always loved the outdoors.

As a child who struggled with dyslexia at school, he longed to be in the world outside the classroom. Thankfully, due to a forward-thinking teacher who encouraged him to run round the field before a lesson, Hamza embraced his love of nature from an early age. There he discovered that his dyslexia allowed him to see the world in a different way.

Homeward Bound tells the story of Hamza's love of the outdoors. From his day job filming wildlife to his beloved walks with Midge the dog - he loves to get outside and experience the wonder of the natural world. Join Hamza on a new adventure as he shares his most precious moments in nature. From the grasslands of Wiltshire to the Scottish Highlands, Hamza will teach you how to look at nature with fresh eyes, and to marvel at its beauty.

Packed with charming personal stories and fascinating insights, Hamza is the perfect guide to help you see nature in new ways. He shows us wildlife in all its wonder and shares how to pay closer attention to the world around us.

Home may be closer than you think.
