My top 5 Antarctic experiences
- Getting goosebumps when a minke whale popped up right next to my zodiac boat. I was awestruck
- Spending time on the bridge, where I learnt how the ship and Antarctic operations work – fascinating stuff
- Taking the time to appreciate the out-of-this-world scenery during sunsets
- Ticking off an activity not many people can say they have tried: camping on the White Continent! Sleeping in a snow hole let me experience the landscape in a completely new way
- Seeing a lone emperor penguin up close on the Antarctic Peninsula – an incredibly rare wildlife sighting as these creatures are usually found much further inland

More about me
- Before joining Swoop, I planned bespoke journeys to Europe, Africa, Asia and beyond for my clients (and got to stay in some of the world's most exclusive properties)
- I’ve also worked in the music industry, organising world tours for renowned artists such as Jamiroquai
- In 2019 I funded a rhino dehorning project to protect these endangered animals from poaching and worked with the Black Mambas, the world’s first all-female anti-poaching unit.
- A passionate surfer, you can also usually find me scouring the planet for the best waves
- My love of ancient history often leads me to explore archaeological sites, whether it's the ruins of Cambodia's Angkor Wat or the temples of Egypt
