Daniel

Founder and Head Guide

My calling to be a guide came originally from an older brothers childhood dream.

Although he is now a teacher (those who cant do...) he has passed the passion on to me.

 

From the tender age of 17 when I first went to Canada with him to start pursuing my dream to now living in Japan a decade later it has remained a passion ingrained in my like no other. 

​

The joy I take from meeting new people and experiencing the outdoors together is a joy like no other. Come and join on an adventure in my backyard.
