Joe

Exeter, England

Kayaking

Hey Everyone!!! My name is Joe and I’m 19 years old and I’m from Exeter in the southwest of England. At college I studied outdoor education for a year before I started an apprenticeship at an outdoor centre on the edge of Dartmoor.

A quick fact about my self, I recently spent a month in Uganda helping deliver mattresses and mosquito nets to two communities near Kampala. We also got to take part in some fun activities such as kayaking and rafting the Nile river, a safari in Murchison national park and also played in a local football match!!! I hope to keep travelling the world and tick as many countries off as I can. When I’m not busy I try and play football (soccer)when ever I can if I’m not playing then I’ll be out somewhere watching it.

This will be my first time in America so my first summer at ADK and I will be one of your kayak instructors, I’m most looking forward to spending time on the lake and learning about different peoples cultures. My goals at camp this summer is to help people grow in confidence on and off the water to help people challenge themselves and see how much they can grow over the summer.
