About Me

T.I.A... This Is Africa




Uganda... I loved it.



Me, Anna, Sofa and Joe going Rhino watching


Words alone cannot describe how incredible this place is!!!


Leela, Ben, me and Joe loving the spray from Murchison Falls


The people are amazing...






Local dude earning a buck carrying our boats from the take-out to our matatu (van)



The food is delicious...




Lunch stop near Masindi... where our love for Mango chutney all started



The size and abundance of wildlife is beyond comprehension...


Me and the Rhino chilling


Just a small group of Giraffes that we saw on safari



Our safari to Murchison Falls was amazing...





The campsite we shared with the Hippos on the 'Delta' at Murch Falls National Park


Nile Festival was the best kayaking event I have ever seen (and entered)...


Nile Fest competitors after the prize giving



Sam defying gravity with a massiff Airscrew on 'Nile Special' wave during the BigAir comp


The girls absolutely stoked after finishing the SilverBack Boda Boda Xtreme Race


The rapids are scarily big but relatively friendly...



Me about to get swallowed on the right line of Bujagali Falls

and the play waves can take you from zero to hero in seconds...



Sofa (always the hero, never zero) about to fly down 'Nile Special'

And the partying is out of this world!!!!!!!!!!!

A impromtu dance video starring Sofa, Hessie, Joe and myself with off-topic commentary from B and Machineeeee, and backup drinkers Jenny, Benny Hucko, Leela and Will... NRE BAR after our day bender at the Adrift pool...

If pictures say a thousand words then feast your eyes out on these because I actually can not verbalise how awesome this place really is...



The girls stoked at the top of Murch Falls


The road to the Rhinos was like this for 4 hours

7 of 11 kiwis... the majority of the crew loving the African sunset

Cool as local kids playing at their pre-school (Sponsored school for orphans)

Christmas at Hairy Lemon Island... chilling with everyone at the Jaquzzi swimming hole


Bringing in the New Year at Sipi Falls; Soph, Brendan, Ben and Me

I had such a great time in Uganda kayaking lots, but also celebrating Christmas at 'Hairy Lemon Island' and bringing in the New Year at Sipi Falls, so I decided to extend my ticket to stay here even longer... so I spent another month at Bujagali Falls kayaking abit, resting injuries alot and volunteering for Soft Power Health. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made, but it made it soooooooooooooo much harder to leave!!! Loved those 3 months... cheers to everyone there... love you guys!!!
