About Me

CURRENT MISSION

You can't win a game of chess without making a move... So what are you waiting for!

ABOUT ME

My two main passions in life are the Japanese culture, and vegan cookery. I love arty/crafty hobbies, things that draw out imagination and creativity. I like the idea of learning languages, and being able to go anywhere in the world and connect with people. I just need to find a babelfish (would that even be vegan?!) as my memory isn't up to the challenge.

Interests

One day I want to own my own cafe, on an island somewhere in the mediterranean, where I can bake fresh loaves and show people that vegan food isn't all that bad! Yes there will be cake.
Making computer games is also on my list of intersts, which is lucky, because I do it for a living. I'd also like to get involved in thinking up the ideas for games, as well as programming them, as I'm certain that there is a huge amount of uncharted territory!

Rustic bread baking is as much a science as it is an art, theraputic and satisfying, and whilst I'm no pro-baker, I can certainly pass on the basics!

Vegan cookery is useful for anyone to know, if you're trying to feed yourself on a tight budget, or want to know how to spruce up that pile of unappetising boiled veg on the side of your plate, or if you're simply wanting to feel a bit healthier, I can show you how to create a balanced and delicious meal.
