Profile
Name: Beryl Richards

Age: 64

Current Residence: Port Macquarie, NSW

Occupation: Retired Nurse

Don’t let Beryl’s age fool you, this retired nurse is full of life and energy. Beryl worked as a Nurse all over the Hunter-New England Health region for nearly forty years before retiring fourteen months ago.

Immediately upon retirement, Beryl packed up her house and moved to the coast, bringing her husband of thirty years, Kent with her. The empty-nester parents of two have since been living it up in their retirement.

Though Beryl describes herself as “safe” and “middle of the line”, she has pushed herself to try new things. She has gone skydiving, white water rafting and bungee jumping since her retirement. She even backpacked across New Zealand with her lifelong friend Patrice.

Survivor is going to be another wild ride for Beryl. She auditioned on a dare from Patrice, against Kent’s wishes. Now that she’s here in Taiwan, she’s hoping to “get as much fun from the game” as she can. Beryl hopes her tribe will see past her image as a retiree grandmother and see instead the positive energy, hardwork, dedication and forty years of nursing experience she brings to the tribe.
