Life is an experience to be treasured and enjoyed… I believe in saying yes to every opportunity and relishing every unexpected new path this can lead to. I thrive on exploring new destinations and experiences and am usually willing to try (most) things at least once! Having lived in Canada and New Zealand and worked in the travel industry for over 20 years, I’m continually amazed by the world around us.
Highlights include crossing continents, exploring volcanoes, deserts, jungles and mountain ranges, and witnessing the northern lights dancing across the sky. I’ve also had some incredible wildlife encounters, from kayaking with walrus and surfing with dolphins, to watching adorable bear cubs and being chased by rhinos!
