Visits to Iceland
I completed my degree in Geography at the University of Newcastle, and my passion for travel has taken me to many incredible places around the globe. Iceland, in particular, feels like a second home to me. I’ve spent a significant amount of time exploring its unique landscapes, and it’s a country that continues to inspire me.
One of the most unforgettable experiences was being in Iceland during the Eyjafjallajökull eruption in 2010, just before the infamous ash cloud. One of the most exciting experiences of my life was a snowmobile ride across the Icelandic Myrdalsjokull icecap, to then stand 200 metres away from the erupting Eyjafjallajokull, witnessing such a powerful natural event up close as truly breathtaking.
I’ve also travelled extensively in New Zealand, another destination that holds a special place in my heart. Alongside my travels, I completed a part-time MBA at the University of Bath. This combined with a love for travel, meant I was a natural fit for Discover the World.
