I eventually passed basic training for the Queens Division and served for five years as a foot soldier in anti tanks and as a driver amongst many other jobs, mostly in Northern Ireland. I am a Veteran. We all paid the price to some extent. Leaving our families, friends and our lives behind us to serve the greater good. I had a few close calls during my service, one of them involving a pride of lions and a gang of baboons in Kenya! But that’s a story for the campfire… I was hospitalised when I got blown off a roof in fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Had a very close call with the IRA. And that’s when I had a tough time readjusting. All my friends and family had moved on with their lives. They don’t tell you that when you join the army. Stone walling and surfing helped me get back on my feet. I had come from a family of builders and engineers so it felt right. I also completed an RNLI Surf Coach Instructors course, and I was a long distance lorry driver amongst many other things in the years that were to follow. I don’t regret any of my army service but it takes its toll, sometimes when you are least expecting it. That’s why I’m setting up this retreat. Because I’ve seen what it does to people and I think this place can help fix some of those issues. I want to share all the trades and skills I’ve learnt over the years. From off grid living to stone masonry, wild cooking, surfing, fishing and a lot more! The modern world is a difficult place for everyone for so many reasons, and I want to show people that there is a way of living sustainably, in and with nature, and it can be very rewarding! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ae3c8eac849423ddbd5641/1bdd6636-7049-4edf-bb3b-c0c11604b28a/3259D976-1BB4-45B0-80AA-4C66F41E1144.jpeg Home - Want to find out more?
