CURRENT MISSION

Change the world through good city planning.

ABOUT ME

On a brave and noble quest to discover the world and all the inhabitants therein, what makes them tick, gives their lives meaning and how they realise all their hopes, dreams and ambitions.

The second part of the quest involves trying to find the world's coolest mosques.

And the third involves ice-cream...lots of ice cream.

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Smile deep

Interests

I swim in the summer and gym in the winter and breakdance whenever and wherever I get the chance.

I love deep things like philosophy, identity, politics and spirituality. Conversations about those things are the best.

Also interested in trying to find ways people are making the world a better place and sharing those ideas and inspirations.

Music, Movies, and Books

All the books...I read everything I can get my hands on.

I'm a big fan of movies with quirky characters - so everything made by Wes Anderson. Also like movies that show non-conventional ways of living.

I love music, particularly hip-hop but also some rock, indie, folk, soulful piano ballade vibes.
