I spent 8 years working and travelling around Southeast Asia and fell in love with everything it has to offer. I enjoy getting off the tourist trail, meeting local people, giving back, travelling responsibly and experiencing a ton of new exciting adventures.

How did you get involved in travel?
"From a young age I have been obsessed with travel. My desire started on a trip around Europe before I left to Southeast Asia after university. Over the past 8 years I have lived and travelled in various counties like Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Laos and The Philippines. I started my career in Travel after a quick realisation that I not only loved travelling myself, but also enjoyed helping others to relive the incredible experiences I have had. Along with my friends and business partners, we combined our knowledge and put together many of our exciting travel programmes. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"On my first trip to the Philippines, I arrived in El Nido completely amazed by the view from El Nido Bay. The shooting limestone cliffs, pure white sand and turquoise waters proved that this really was an untouched paradise. I had heard that El Nido was still home to many unexplored Islands and beaches. After spending a week there I became friends with some lovely local people, who told me about this pristine Island called "Darocotan Island." I got on the back on motorbike and headed off in search. After an hours drive north of El Nido, heading through stunning countryside, I arrived at a very local town. Looking out I could see Darocotan and after negotiating a rate with a local boatman we headed across. I spent the day relaxing on the beach, snorkelling at a shipwreck just offshore and exploring the coral reef. This paradise stayed in my memory for the years that followed and it's now one of the destinations on our Palawan tour."
