About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Gotta get out of this place...

ABOUT ME

I am an itinerant slacker who took voluntary redundancy from his very important career as a producer at the BBC in London in 2002 and has been hoboing around the world ever since.

During that time I have crossed the Gobi in a Soviet mini-van, rode into the Sahara on a camel, been arrested by SAVAK in Tehran, looked for myself in a Buddhist Monastery in the Himalayas, been pronounced a living god by an Afghani prince, and drunk away a year in Oz.

I have worked as an English teacher, bank clerk, factory worker, removals man, web designer, banana humper, zucchini picker and shark fisherman. I am currently seeking direction.
