Some would say I have an adventurous spirit. An example of this was in 2017 when I boarded the cheapest flight I could find to Brazil (Air Europa, 1 star) and travelled solo for a year around South America. I landed a pretty unimaginable volunteer post on the Galapagos Islands for 6 weeks during that time and worked in the Comms Department of the Charles Darwin Foundation, a conservation charity there. The office was right on the water and sunbathing marine iguanas routinely caused traffic jams in and out of the centre.

There I helped with video content and articles, one of which I submitted to Nat Geo and they published it on their blog.
