About Us

surfino-lake-about

I’m a 32-year-old, big kid at heart who’s been travelling the world since the age of 20 so I’ve been to a lot of places and tried a lot of new things.

I grew up in Beverly which is by Hull in the UK and I have been travelling the world for over 10 years now.

My love for travelling really began when I was a child, my parents were never into the ‘normal’ family holidays like Disney World or Mallorca and instead, we went on camping trips to France or hiked in Cappadocia. During these holidays, I really got to see a different area of the world that I hadn’t seen on TV or online and this made me really excited so when I got to the age of 20, just before I started university, I decided to take a gap year.

Like everyone I knew, I decided to head out to Thailand, cliché I know but not if you do it right. I avoided all the madness of the backpackers and tourist hotspots and went off track on my own, heading into remote villages and towns no one had ever heard of.

From Thailand I visited Cambodia, Malaysia, Vietnam and ended my year in Singapore, making the most of every minute I was there. When I returned home, my parents were expecting me to get back to normal life but I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to be explored.

So after 4 weeks, I packed my bags again and headed to the airport with a one-way ticket to Australia. This is where I first attempted surfing and was immediately hooked.

From there, my love of surfing has grown, along with my love for travel. Now everywhere I go, I hunt out a decent beach to hit the waves.
