Stefan Kredel grew up and went to school in Murnau, in the south of Germany.

After training as a paramedic, Stefan went cycling through India, Nepal, New Zealand and on his own. In Nepal he walked the Annapurna Circle Track, in New Zealand he hiked various National Parks and in Peru he followed the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu.

Various excursions during this time at the university led him all across Germany, Austria, Italy and South Africa. In Africa, he visited some of the biggest copper, gold and diamond mines in the world. In one gold mine he descended more than 3000 meters below the surface.

Stefan has lectured aboard expedition cruise ships since 1998. His first voyage took him to and he has returned to this fascinating continent every single year on several occasions both as a lecturer and as Expedition Leader.
