Why he is climbing Kilimanjaro:
Having spent my entire career in travel, I feel I have gained so much from this incredible industry, with opportunities to see the world and, through working with G Adventures, being able to genuinely change lives around the world. 
The Kilimanjaro climb is something very close to my heart and a project I’m passionate about as it will bring together some of the industry’s incredible leaders. United by the common goal of raising money to develop new social enterprises, which will offer vital employment and empowerment to communities around the world, this project is more than just a climb for us – it is an opportunity to give back through the power of travel. 
With the training a no small feat in itself, I also suffer from vertigo, so this trek will be challenging for me on a number of levels. I’m hoping to channel fear into positive energy, spurred on my the great cause we are doing this for, will help me get to the summit.
I am proud to be fundraising for Planeterra Foundation. For more information please visit www.planeterra.org.
