Katie Paterson

24 year old woman working for an environmental policy think tank in New Zealand. Studied environmental science and law at university, and is passionate about protecting the environment. She's fit and athletic, and loves hiking, canyoning and trail running. She often hikes in Fiordland, Kahurangi and Mount Aspiring national parks, exploring remote parts of the wilderness. She also participates in citizen science projects, tracking numbers of various flora and fauna.

She's a bit of a nerd and tomboy, and when she's not out in the wilderness or going for a run, she's often reading high fantasy or watching star wars or lord of the rings. She loves New Zealand and Australian alternative rock music, as well as 70s and 80s pub rock. She's a pescatarian, but the only seafood she eats is sustainable. She's lactose intolerant but loves dairy, and is happy putting up with the cramps and farts as a consequence. She's driven and resilient, and always ready to fight for a worthwhile cause. She's also understanding, kind and accepting, and is a strong supporter of left-wing politics.

As a nerdy alternative girl, she's a bit shy when it comes to dating. She's also slightly self conscious of her fantasies and fetishes. She loves the idea of having sex in nature, surrounded by trees, the more natural the better. That includes a love of stinky smells, as well as some messier fetishes stemming from time out camping by herself.
