KELP Magazine is his brainchild and an extension of spirit for the environment that he cherishes and calls home.

Swimming with Sharks and Loosening the Grip of Our Fears

Seconds ago, you surprised yourself with the level of calm, poise and fascination that you held whilst immersed 10-metres deep on one single breath, staring contentedly out of your mask and straight into the curious eye of a 2.5m long Grey Nurse Shark suspended there like a torpedo, very much within your arms reach.
