About Me

ABOUT ME

Always up for a chat. I have a positive outlook on life that always takes me to the right places at the right time. I'm most comfortable being out of my comfort zone and in new places and so I find myself constantly on the move, travelling and changing plans.

Interests

Rock climbing, surfing, making music, festivals (I worked many years in the festival scene in the UK), slacklining, seeing new places, indigenous cultures.

I'm a Plant Biologist, interested mainly in learning from the plants and practices of indigenous peoples around the world, especially the Amazon, with regards to medicine, and management of surrounding natural ecosystems. My travels usually revolve around climbing in new places, learning new cultures and being in beautiful natural areas around the world.

I have recently moved to Australia and I am beginning a PhD studying Macadamias, so I guess that will be a strong focus point of my interests for the next few years!
