Over the past 26 years, I have covered every area of working in the white water industry. Raft guiding paddle boats and oar boats, trip leading commercial trips and expedition trips, running guide course, rescue / evacuation course, safety kayaking course and trip leading course, kayak instruction, ducky trips, ops manager, consultant for companies, video and photo kayaking, river exploration and expedition kayak trips. I simply just love being on the river and serving humanity. As i have always said, " I am simply living the dream".

So most people arround the world fly in hot air balloons and so i am sure at this moment you ask yourself what is alex doing now, its all explainable, i always wanted to swim with Dolphins and so i made a deal with the manager of the CICI water park in Acapulco to teach his staff how to rappel so that they can check the material of the balloon in exchange to swim with Dolphins which is a reall cool experience. Climbing the hot air ballon was also an experience especially when it stands 45 meters high. good fun but dont try this at home.


How many people can you get on a bike



I have seen alot of crazy things in this world in which i remember seeing ten people climb out of a Volkswagon beetle which just amazed me, so i asked myself how many people could i get on a bike safely, we managed 5 people on the bike but i reckon we could get another two on there with no worries. jijiji

O.k. so this is how a river guide travels arround the world, you need your kayak in a bag so that you can say that it is a surf board, this way you do not pay extra on flights, In your kayak you load it with all of your river gear. when arriving to the check in desk, make sure that you do not have a look on your face that what you are carrying is heavy, just smile alot. you then need a small bag pack for your clothes and a pelican box for your compu and camera. happy travels and enjoy the rivers of the world.
