Sam Champkins

  • My name is Samuel Champkins
  • I’m known as Sam
  • I’m from South Africa
  • Im currently taking a training course which provides me with adventure guiding qualification of all kinds
  • This is my first year on staff at Falling Creek
  • I’m teaching paddling
  • Something I’ve completed on my “bucket list”? I got the opportunity to go fishing for tigerfish in the Zambezi River, it has been my dream to catch one since I knew they existed.
  • My favorite sandwich is A ham and cheese toastie. Simple and delicious
  • One thing I’m currently trying to make a habit is treating “rest days” like they’re a rest day.
  • The best present I’ve ever received was my first ever fly rod
