Simon Thorsell, Kajakguide
Hej - Simon heter jag.
Jag är egentligen en landkrabba från Västergötland men efter gymnasiet i Värmland där jag läste Äventyrsturism har insett att jag även trivs enormt bra på havet.
Friluftsliv ligger mig varmt om hjärtat och jag älskar att sova i tält och laga mat över öppen eld.
Jag har gjort min praktik under gymnasiet hos Nautopp 2016 men sedan 2018 har jag även jobbat hos Nautopp Kajakcenter Grebbestad under sommaren. Jag har under den tiden fått en enorm passion för havskajakpaddling och jag det gillar att dela med mig av.
När jag inte paddlar kajak gillar jag att cykla mtb, cross eller åka skidor. Jag gjorde min första och förmodligen inte sista säsong i fjällen ( Åre) vintern 2018/2019 där jag trivdes väldigt bra!
Mig kommer ni i kontakt med speciellt när ni hyr kajak eller är med på guidade dagsturer.
