Ocean to Jungle

Science-Led Wildlife Travel for the Intrepid Explorer

Travel is more than just a destination; it’s an education. For me, the desire to explore stems from a lifelong passion for the natural world. While many travellers seek the sights, I seek the story of the ecosystem.

My Expertise & Background

I didn’t just stumble into birding or wildlife tracking; it is rooted in my professional background. I hold a PhD in Translational Medicine (Life Sciences), a journey that fueled my obsession with observation, data, and the biological world.

After years in the lab and the global life science industry, I realised that my true calling was witnessing these biological wonders in their natural habitats. I’ve spent the last 10 years documenting wildlife across Asia, Africa, and South America, moving beyond the comfort zone of “tourist shuttles” to find authentic, raw encounters with nature.

Why Ocean to Jungle?

Most travel guides tell you where to go. I want to show you how to see. My guides are built on first-hand, self-planned expeditions—no tour groups, no fluff. Whether it’s birding in Central America, snorkelling in the Maldives, or hiking remote trails in Colombia, I provide:

  • Evidence-Based Guides: Detailed, researched itineraries from a decade of solo travel.
  • Authentic Wildlife Encounters: Tips on finding animals ethically and safely in the wild.
  • Real-World Experience: No-nonsense advice for travellers who want “real” travel over “tourist” travel.
  • Vegan Eating Tips and Tricks: Living a positive, peaceful life means my travels are 100% plant-based. I’ll share my tips on how to eat incredibly well as a vegan in every destination I visit—no sad side-salads allowed.
