Life is one long journey of exciting travel opportunities. Raised on a farm in Rhodesia, Zimbabwe – before living in London for 5 years. Travel became a passion and exploring Africa became not only a job but a series of highlights in everyday life. Canoe safaris down the Zambezi River, tracking rhino or walking with the Bushmen in Botswana was just the beginning. The ‘JOB’ led me to riding elephants in India & silently watching tiger, sailing down the Brahmaputra & Ganges rivers, floating on the backwaters of Kerala, climbing Machu Picchu, Iguazu Falls & learning to tango in Buenos Aires. Cruising from ports such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Cape Town, Sydney, staying up till dawn to see the sun rise on Caribbean Islands and escorting sports-mad clients on the World Cup Rugby cruise around New Zealand – floating up the Mekong River in Vietnam and Cambodia, as well as kayaking in Halong Bay …. the ever changing scenery and adventures never cease to thrill and amaze. So … to my friends, family and clients – I invite you to share the world with me. No special language required – simply bring a smile, pack a sense of humour and a dash of patience – your ticket will have ‘adventure’ printed on it .
AFRICA – all my senses come alive in the solitude of endless horizons, wild animals and nature’s impossible beauty. Sharing this passion with clients is like experiencing the magic over and over again.
Most recently I’ve just returned from Uganda, where I trekked to find the Chimpanzees in the Kibali Forest before heading to the Bwindi impenetrable forest – trekking up the mountain to quietly sat with the Gorillas – a life time memory.
