Study Mechanical Engineering at university, enjoying the long summers through travel. Keen road cyclist = I like food, a lot. Piano player. Attempting to learn Spanish - this is going less well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Variety! Movies: Enjoyed the original Manchurian Candidate, also went to the cinema to see Despicable Me 2. Books: last read 'The Bees' by Laline Paull, previously 'The Night Manager' by John Le Carre. Music: Charts + 'indie' + classical, open to all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met the Duke of Edinburgh, told him I went to Zimbabwe and he asked me if I had any tropical diseases.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can do a Rubik's cube, can teach. If you ask me why the system is as it is, I won't be able to explain - I'm not a natural, I learned it.
I can share my sense of humour, some* bike maintenance skills and my love of exploring/absorbing.
