In July 2014 I went on a trekking trip to Greenland and became good friends with our guide Dagny. She encouraged me to explore the outdoor route further and to become a Mountain Leader as she could see how much I loved the outdoors and working with people. I took 2015 off work to gain the necessary skills and experience. I spent most of my time that year outdoors and living in a tent or landrover! I successfully completed my ML training and ML summer assessment in 2015 with Plas y Brenin.
I love the outdoors and cannot get enough of it. There are so many memorable moments and honestly I won't be able to decide which one was my favourite. Just being in nature makes me happy. I like to try new things and expand my comfort zone, exploring and having an adventure. Hiking, Cycling, Fell Running etc. Trekking in Greenland & Nepal and Cycling in Thailand are definitely highlights. The most unforgettable and rewarding experience was volunteering at the Shree Rameshwary school in Bungkot, Ghorka, Nepal.
