James’s love for wild animals and their environments was cemented as he climbed Rwenzori Mountains and had his first hike with friends. It seemed inevitable that James would study Travel & Tourism in Uganda, land a job at a prominent safari company and spend years expanding his safari knowledge and trip planning skills. He was a natural fit for Worthwhile Safaris…lucky for us!
Our office couldn’t function without his keen organizational skills and calm delegation of responsibilities!
James says:
My current passion is playing on the beach with my boys. The spirit of exploration, even in our adopted country, is ever-present.
These places inspire me… Most definitely the culture and people I have met in Tanzania and Kenya have made an impact on me. I admire how they embrace their roots and traditions while living in modern Africa. I strive to mimic the simplicity of the way they live and their joyful and positive approach to life.
Memorable moments… Two distinct experiences at odds with each other stand out in my mind. The absolute thrill and insanity of bungee jumping off the Jinja Nile —how freeing it felt to fall and how exhilarating it was to gently bob there as I caught my breath at the bottom.
Why Worthwhile Safaris?… I love working with passionate people from all walks of life on this team. I have been given opportunities to grow and learn while being a part of the puzzle that comes together in creating amazing memories for our travelers.
