Description

I am a very happy and positive person who loves to discover more about the world and the wonderful people that live in it! I adore getting to know new cultures and people, what amazes me about travelling is that the more places you explore it never runs out of fantastic people to meet along the way!

I am huge into exploring new places and adventures, I am a scuba diving instructor, kayak guide, hiking guide and outdoor educator! My passion is conservation and teaching/learning more ways in which we can protect our beautiful planet and keep it wild! I can’t get enough of the ocean and love to take others diving to discover it’s wonders!

I have undertaken many solo expeditions; including cycling the length of Japan, circumnavigating tioman island in a sea kayak in Malaysia, hiking the western Arthur range and hitchenbrooke island in Australia. And I hope to embark on many more!

For the past 16 months I have been in Australia working as a scuba instructor and snorkelling/kayaking guide as well as travelling and hiking my way around various locations in Tasmania, Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia.

I love adventures and have completed many solo expeditions of kayaking and hiking.

I have been fortunate enough to be a part of a few workaways, working with dingos, permaculture, ocean conservation and sustainability. I have learnt a lot and have a lot more to learn! I am a hard worker and very enthusiastic in what I do, always keeping spirits high!
