James climbed Mt Kenya for the first time aged just 5 and by his calculations, he has spent 5-10% of his life sleeping under a canvas. Rumour has it that he was Kenya's answer to Mowgli but either way there is no doubting that his passion for the outdoors is in his blood. To prove his passion, James has been tour guiding for years and is armed with countless qualifications including: Mountain Leader Award, Kayak Level 2 Coach, Day Skipper, Trip Leader and Raft Guide 4/5.
