Life before Swoop
The lure of exploring iconic destinations proved more appealing than entering the legal profession so I re-trained as an overland tour leader instead, and led tours through Sub-Saharan Africa from the vast Namibian desert to the Serengeti plains. My adventures would often see me camping for 60 days straight! I have also had an epic 90 day road trip around the US and been trekking in Nepal. On returning home, I pursued my love of travel by planning trips for others. For the past 10 years, I ahve been helping customers to explore the very best of what a destination has to offer.
Why I love polar travel
I love that no two days, or even landings, are the same; it adds to the sense of uniqueness you get throughout. It’s the ultimate adventure to experience such a remote location and I just love the combination of vast, open space, and incredible wildlife.
Day to day at Swoop
I am a polar specialist at Swoop, and spend my days planning trips of a lifetime to these incredible regions. I love to use my insider knowledge and experience to advise on which boat and voyage will offer the most incredible experience for each person I’m talking to. Getting the right one is so important, as polar trips are often long planned and much anticipated; your trip deserves to be totally awe-inspiring.
