Ben J. Harris

I was born and grew up in South West London ,England UK .I knew from an early age that college or university wasn't going to be for me . I left school as soon as possible at 16 yrs old ,hoping first to be a stuntman but on further investigation decided that wasn't for me and took the next option of becoming a diver .

This career has taken me all over the world and my overland journey in 2005 reinforced for me that happiness and contentment comes from travelling and exploring new places and "living free".

When i am not volunteering for Sea Shepherd Conservation Society or working with Parley for the Oceans in our fight to save the oceans ,I run my own company The Other Panama and live on a small island off the Pacific coast of Panama.
