    Mini Bio

    Originally hailing from the remote mountainous region of Suffolk, I moved south and west some eight years ago to attempt claims on multiple first ascents in the county of Somerset. Having found them all claimed, I continued my employment in far-flung adventures, leading winter and summer expeditions worldwide.  Bears and wolves were tracked, mountains cycled over, seas kayaked, lakes canoed across, rapids were rafted down and many a path was trodden. I thoroughly enjoy walking very long distances and partaking in a well-earned beer afterwards.

    Favourite Place to Play

    Suffolk, because no one seems to have discovered how stunning it is.

    Long distance walks are my favourite. I recently finished the Tour du Mont Blanc, also Offas Dyke, The Continental Divide, the Pacific Crest Trail, Hadrian’s Wall, Peddar’s Way, and the Camino (in between walking work). On the cards next is the Arizona trail and Lands End to John O’groats, which will be my poodle, Winnie’s, first big adventure.

    Astrid was perfect, helpful, knowledgeable, fun to talk to and a spectacular driver on all those narrow roads.
