CURRENT MISSION

Millie and I are currently driving our defender from the UK through the region of west africa. We have our surfboards packed and been slowly chugging our way and loving how many wonderful people and beautiful areas we have passed along the way!

ABOUT US

We are a really positive and upbeat couple. We love to chat and listen to stories and get a lot from being around lovely people. We are always keen to learn about anything and everything!

We love the outdoors camping and getting into the wild. Whether that be hiking, on the snow in the mountains or finding some quiet tucked away surf somewhere. Foraging is another passion of ours and we love to find different edible foods growing along the coasts and woodlands

Millie plays instruments and I love photography so when we are in cities we try to look for some good exhibitions and some live music.

Millie has a master's in engineering and has been working hard with a medical engineering research group developing surgical devices with surgeons in India and Africa. She loves to read, do some art and play music. She has a wonderful thirst for knowledge and a huge excitement for the world around her.

I care passionately for people with learning disabilities and vulnerable children. I teach skiing and snowboarding but most recently outdoor education for kids between schools. I am an excited and super smily person who loves to travel, take photos and meet interesting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is a really tough one, I guess just any travelling that i can getting to meet new people and different cultures. Picking one moment is pretty though. The two biggest bungee jumps in the world, diving in the komodo Islands or driving the Pamir Highway are all definitely up there!
