About The Host

I was born in South Africa and moved to Switzerland at the age of eight.

I discovered open-water swimming when I emigrated to Australia in 2008 with my partner Danny. Since then I have completed a few team and duo crossings to Rottnest Island, two solo crossings, and the 25km Port to Pub in March 2023. My biggest achievement so far is the 26km Lake Zurich swim. I am always dreaming about the next big one: Aspirations are Palm to Shelley Beach Swim, Maui Channel Swim, and Catalina Swim, ...

I love swimming, it’s become a huge passion of mine!

I studied Tourism and recently got my swim coaching license. Swimwild Escape was born because I love connecting with like-minded people. I love anything to do with nature, adventure, swimming, fun, good food & wine, and thought, I’ll combine it all and offer swimming retreats to people who want the same! I’m looking forward to meeting you on one of our retreats, you won’t regret it! Dare to swim wild!”
