The Full Story

About

From the moment I could walk and talk  'Just looking to see' was my response to ' Joel! where are you?'. This prompted my family to run and supervise, as I was often atop the fridge, in a tree or on the roof. My curiosity and sense of adventure has only grown since then, but honed in a way that serves my community and the environment. 

 

I have been all of the following but not limited to:

 Australian tour bus driver and scuba diver, sea kayak guide and instructor, cross country ski instructor, kids camps facilitator and program director, backcountry camping guide, canoe guide and Big canoe instructor, snowshoe and hiking guide, lead  Forest School facilitator and an Interpretive guide for the National Parks.  

 

Looking to Sea is the culmination of decades in the outdoors from the mountain tops to the sea floor. Having seen first hand the damage that tourism does across the globe, I've dedicated my life to the values of Ecotourism and to serving my Community.

Ecotourism is defined as “responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of the local people, and involves interpretation and education” (TIES, 2015).

Stay curious. Stay kind. Stay safe
