James Drury

  • My name is James Drury
  • I’m from Essex, England
  • I work in an old haunted Pub, haven’t met any ghosts….. yet.
  • This is my second year on staff at Falling Creek (’24-’25)
  • I’ll be teaching backpacking
  • If I could be friends with any character from a book or movie, I would choose Samwise Gamgee from Lord of the Rings. Honest, loyal, and always prepared to feed the group!
  • A food I would be happy eating every day is Biriyani, it has so many variations it never gets old! Simple and cheap to make, a big batch will last you ages!
  • What would a successful summer look like for me? Inspiring campers to have a wanderlust for the wilderness! And teaching them the skills they need to set them up for a lifetime of adventure opportunities.

Want to Work at Falling Creek Too?
