- What did you do before joining Dragoman?
Before joining Drago I spent the summer season working as a hiking guide in northern Spain. I also worked to travel for 5 years and spent as much time abroad as possible and lived for a while in Pakistan and Nepal.
- Why did you become Dragoman crew?
I wanted to upscale the adventure and there's just so much to see! Why not travel and work at the same time?!
- What's your favourite destination?
Currently my favourite place is Nepal but I'm always on the lookout for new contenders.
- What's the most essential item in your backpack?
My sewing kit! For sure. There's always someone somewhere who's ripped their trousers. That and my crochet hook (or 6).
- What is your one piece of advice to future overlanders/passengers?
Embrace local timings. They may not get it done on time, but they'll get it done. Hopefully...
