Daniel Baylis makes things.
Some of the things he enjoys making include songs, poems, photographs, and books. But he has also been known to make sourdough bread, overly ambitious travel plans, poor romantic decisions, and more.
Daniel has also embarked upon unusual global expeditions that have included hiking 1000 kilometres across Israel + Palestine, cycling 5000 kilometres across India, and writing poetry in Cuba.
His current work involves writing and recording an album of alt-folk songs.
He has published a variety of books:
- This is a Landscape. A poetry collection that explores the notion of landscapes — both internal and external. Along with words, the book features a selection of landscape photographs, taken from various corners across Canada.
- Wild Birds. The true story of a 1000-kilometre walk across Israel and Palestine, and the lessons learned along the way.
- A Submission to Love. A ravishing debut poetry collection that explores themes of romance, relationships, and resiliency.
- The Traveller: Notes from an Imperfect Journey Around the World. A travel memoir about a yearlong quest to be helpful in twelve diverse corners of the world.
