I split my year between guiding groups in incredible overseas destinations like America and Oman and at home in my favourite place on the planet – the UK! Since a very young age, I have enjoyed exploring the far-flung corners of the world, learning to be resourceful and adaptable, to plan ahead, and, above all, to have a happy and positive outlook on life – a good sense of humour will get you through most things. I am equally happy wild camping in remote areas and on luxury trips staying in some of the finest hotels, houses, and castles. I thoroughly enjoy bringing to life an area’s fascinating history and pointing out the wide variety of flora and fauna.

Life is one big adventure, and I have had the opportunity to spend a large amount of time chasing the sun, travelling between the northern and southern hemispheres. During this time, I have paddled the most extreme rapids, crossed several mountain ranges, and experienced a huge variety of cultures.
