Te Araroa – May 2023

My most exciting trip yet! In November 2022, I quit my job, gave up my flat, and sold all my belongings to fund my walking the length of New Zealand following Te Araroa – “The Long Pathway”. A journey of over 3,000kms taking me more than 6 months, it was a phenomenal and life changing adventure.

West Highland Way – September 2020

After long periods of lockdowns, I looked to local adventures that still pushed my limits, helped me grow, let me meet other adventurers and see new places. Cue my first long-distance trail, hiking the West Highland Way.

Stok Kangri – September 2018

An attempt to climb Stok Kangri with a group of wonderful women through Love Her Wild. Weather changed our plans, but it was a hell of an adventure.
