Description
Hello
My name is Gat, I'm 32 and from New Zealand. I am passionate about conservation and anything outdoors or nature related. I love traveling and meeting new people, and exploring different cultures, I have been very fortunate to have a few dream jobs over the years all of which have brought me a lot of happiness and a huge skill set, from being an Automotive engineer, farmhand to Glacier guiding, raft guiding and conservation, conservation work i absolutely love being surrounded by nature and making a difference. I definitely find it hard to sit still sometimes and love throwing myself into a new adventure or experience, for me happiness is growing and learning new things.
By nature, I'm a little quiet but that doesn't stop me from having a good chat about anything and everything with open eyes and ears, I love sharing experiences with others and being pretty spontaneous, life for me is a little too short to fit it all in but I'm going to try fit a bunch in!!
Looking forward to tomorrow's adventure.
