  If I had to go to a deserted island, I’d take…

…a knife, pillow, and my guitar.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be an Outdoor Teacher! I went on a school trip to the south of France when I was 12 and decided I wanted to be just like my instructor! That, or an actor…

What were your favourite subjects at school?

Drama and P.E

What is your favourite outdoor activity? 

I love to Mountain Bike, especially downhill. I love speed, jumps, and being away from traffic.

Are there any outdoor activities that scare you? 

I would never want to try base jumping or solo climbing; I like to push my limits but know I have done what I can to keep safe.

What is the next skill you would like to learn?

I would love to learn how to kiteboard someday.  I would also like to do a split snowboard journey across the Alps.

Which famous person would you most like to meet? 

I would love to meet Sir David Attenborough on the set of one of his Plant Earth series – we have so much to learn from him.

Where do you dream of visiting one day? 

So many places… but Canada is next!
