Our Story
A man in a black wetsuit holding a white surfboard on a beach with rocky cliffs and cloudy sky in the background.

Surfing, DIY, travelling - you name it, I’m up for it! You’ll find me scouring Google Maps for secret right-handers, conjuring up our next strike mission, or convincing people to move to New Zealand. While Kate gets the logistics sorted, I am the ideas man; no journey is too challenging, no beach too remote; if there’s a will, there’s a way.

28, YES man, and constantly checking the surf report
