I grew up in the North East of England however spent the last 14 years travelling the world. I really think it's good to connect with people, regardless of background, orientation etc. People can teach you things, not just about the world, but also about yourself.

I last travelled to Antarctica for work. I do love my travelling and the energy it brings, but that's on hold for now. Before the new normal, I wouldn't have been able to get by without a little help from those I'd met on the road, so that is why I'm here, to give back. I used to be a tour guide manager, leading tours in NYC, London, Chicago, Niagara Falls, Algonquin Park etc; If there's time (I work allot), I don't mind taking you to Niagara. I'm a licensed tour guide there.

I LOVE adventure and adrenaline - the feelings I get, It's like pressing record on life and going live.

Finally, I live by this: It's nice to be important, but twice as important to be nice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The 7 continents were a milestone that make me smile from time to time.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're thinking of doing any long distance adventures I could give you some pointers, I've cycled the length of GB and walked the length of Ireland for charity so I know a thing or two about packing bags, expeditions and blisters.
