ABOUT ME
All about me.... I'm a passionate, enthusiastic fun-loving chick who adds a touch of spice to every situation!
I left the UK in 2009 and took 2 years to circumnavigate the coastal roads of Oz, mostly because I was playing with whale sharks on the Ningaloo Reef in WA.
I then spent 9 months in South East Asia. After dragging myself away from Full Moon Parties and the Nam Song, I cycled from Laos to Southern Cambodia, clocking up 1100km and then went on to become a PADI Divemaster in Thailand.
In 2012 I arrived in New Zealand in search of fun, adventure and an increase in bank balance.. I soon realised that, fun as it was, Queenstown was not the place for saving money! I moved to the Bay of Islands and had a lot of fun in the Pacific Ocean as a Divemaster and working with the bottlenose dolphin. I then lived in Auckland for 1.5 years working full time on boats and obtained my Commercial Skipper's ticket.
I have lived in Akaroa since Nov '17 and am loving life in the crater, working with the Hector's dolphin.
Keen to sail around the world.
