Description

Nature & Kajak Guide, Banks Peninsula, Canterbury, South Island 📍🌿🐧🌊

Born and raised in Germany, deeply connected to Canada and open to explore other wild and beautiful parts of the world.
I am an open-minded, nature-loving, active, and courageous person. I’m not afraid of hard work, remote places, or physically demanding tasks. I enjoy meeting new people, experiencing different cultures, and gaining fresh perspectives on life. My goal is to learn from people and sharing my personality, knowledge and experiences with other people. It’s all about give something and receive something. 🧘🏻‍♀️🫶🏻
