James gained notoriety when in 2014 he cycled 5000km from Darwin to Sydney taking on a 1 year long vow of silence in order to raise awareness for animals and promote peace over violence.

His you tube speech "This speech is your wake up call" went viral, now with over 200,000 hits and he runs a very active and successful You Tube channel.

He has overcome leukaemia, bulimia and drug addiction and now travels the world speaking to audiences about his experiences, veganism and how to be more active in animal rights.

James's next stop will be Wellington followed by Tauranga and Auckland.
