I worked as a Television Producer all of my adult life until three years ago when I hit the road. I moved to Koh Tao, Thailand and became a SCUBA diving instructor. I worked there for a year, and since then I've taught SCUBA diving in Nicaragua, worked as a videographer at a hunting lodge in Argentina, and have bummed around Europe, the South Pacific, Australia and New Zealand.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The other day, I was swimming out to one of the barrier islands of Wallis et Futuna - about a 2 mile swim, and a shark started circling under me. I didn't think much of it at first, because I see sharks snorkeling and diving all the time, but this one kept coming up at me to nip at my fins. It really put me on edge for the whole next hour as I swam back to shore.

Also, hang-gliding in Rio De Janeiro is pretty close to the top of my list of amazing experiences.
Oh, and camping camelback in the Sahara was amazing.
