About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living and working in Andover, UK for the foreseeable future

ABOUT ME

Since graduating University in Summer 2011, I have spent a year and a half living in Whistler BC, Canada. I mainly spent my time in Winter skiing, playing guitar and enjoying the company of friends. In Summer I spent time chilling with friends by the lake, and cross country biking. I then spent 4 months travelling down the west coast of the USA, couchsurfing along the way. I am currently living in working in Andover, UK for the foreseeable future.

PHILOSOPHY

We only have a certain amount of time to live, so spend as much of it as you can doing the things you enjoy, and in the company of those who you get on with

Teach, Learn, Share

From my studies, I know a few random science facts which I find interesting. I can ski which may be useful if there is ever an opportunity to teach people. I can also name every country in the world.

I would like to learn more about nature, tips of how to survive/live off the land i.e. Resourcefulness
