Sam Bunney, Domaine de Segries

Sam says:
I take school groups on a three day canoe descent of the Ardèche gorge and I also run mountain biking and other land based sessions.

After attending Kingston Maurward college, I came to PGL as an instructor at Segries. I enjoyed it so much that I re-applied for the 2008 season. Whilse I’ve been working for PGL, I’ve improved my paddling skills dramatically and also my leadership and group working skills. I have been given many opportunities both work-related and socially;  I went to the Alps paddling, and took my BCU 4 Star training.
