Rob Storey grew up in London, UK, surrounded by city life, but he always loved being outdoors. He started with mountain biking, racing at a national level and water based activities on the river Thames, but moving to the rugged west coast of Wales sparked his interest in a variety of outdoor activities. Rob studied Outdoor Adventure Management in Ireland and over the last 25 years has traveled extensively, teaching, guiding and coaching an array of outdoor activities, from boats and bikes, to bush and mountains.

Twelve years ago, Rob and his wife travelled to New Zealand for a short holiday, but after falling in love with the stunning landscapes and adventures available, they decided to stay. Since then, Rob has worked with innumerable schools, community groups and universities, passionately promoting Outdoor Education and making sure that everyone, not just the few, can enjoy and benefit from these experiences.
