Steve
What's the most adventurous thing you've done?
“Shortly after meeting Laura, I spent a month leading a group of 14 teenagers on an overseas expedition to Tanzania for World Challenge, culminating in a successful ascent of Mt Meru, Africa's second highest mountain.”
Where in the world would you most like to visit?
“Well, assuming Laura will invite me to join her in Bhutan, which is a country for which I feel a great calling too, I'd probably choose closer to home and head to Scotland. I feel that I've only scratched the surface so far and would love to go deeper, exploring its remote islands, mountains and wilder parts. Another big bucket list goal is to walk the Appalachian Trail, but at 2200 miles, that might to wait a little longer! “
What three things would you take to a desert island?
1 - My mountain bike,
2- Trail running shoes
3 - A build-your-own micro-brewery kit.
(Although the practical side of me couldn't go without a folding saw and axe too!)

What's the most adventurous thing you've done?
“Hang gliding to impress a guy I quite liked…. It went reasonably well & we’ve just celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary!”
Where in the world would you most like to visit?
“Having lived & worked in Nepal on and off in my late teens and early twenties, I regret never making it to Bhutan, so it’d be there!”
What three things would you take to a desert island?
This is a HARD ONE!!!
1 - Sun cream (#englishrose)
2 - Dark chocolate fruit and nut (thank you Hotel Chocolat)
3 - A fridge to stop my chocolate melting.
