Meet Lydia McLean

Job: 

Expedition South coordinator.

Job description: 

Lydia will keep the tractors on track by planning the route and logistics for the journey, and will make sure Expedition South followers are up to date with the latest news from the road through blogs and social media. Lydia is no stranger to sharing stories of cold, remote places. She’ll be accompanied by Katikati school ambassador Emperor, and will help him to write a journal from the road for NZ school students.

Work background: 

Lydia has a background in Antarctic science communication and, like her elders Al Fastier and Ed Hillary, Lydia is an accomplished adventurer. Following on from Expedition South, she will be undertaking an ambitious four-month traverse from the top of the South Island to the bottom, following the spine of the Southern Alps.
