About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just moved to Lima setting in and exploring the city

ABOUT ME

I'm from Scotland but I've been living in Asia for several years, just moved to Lima

I'm a teacher and a writer (Send me a message if you want a free ebook copy). I write spiritual science fiction. Which kind of sums me up well: I'm half hippy half geek -- I like meditation and Star Trek. I teach computing as way of making to survive.

PHILOSOPHY

I know nothing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen a lot of the world. Wrote some books. Climbed some mountains. Dived. I think India was the place I liked to travel to most. China or Indonesia have been the best places to live. - lets see what Lima has to offer.
