In 2020 I created an ecotourism experience. Since which, I have hosted locals and visitors on kayak excursions. I try to make each tour informative and educational especially for our visitors. It’s been great seeing so many people enjoy the experience, some locals for the first time.

In 2021, I began Paddle With Purpose, a pilot program to provide young people with the same experience and with the added benefit of leadership opportunities.

I was recently invited to The Family Centre’s Youth Leadership Academy Fair where I met with young people and had the opportunity to share the program with them. It was amazing speaking with them. (I am so encouraged by the young people I met 💕).

What type of planet will we be leaving our children? But should we really be asking the question ‘what type of children will we be leaving for the planet?’

Thank you Bermuda Parent Magazine for helping us to spread this message, our youth programme and the many ways to nurture our young people to be environmental stewards!
