CURRENT MISSION

Cycling, learning and living.

ABOUT ME

I’m 26 years old, and was born in England. I went to university in the city of London and got a degree in popular music performance. After uni I lived in the south of England for a little while, and had loads of different jobs (printing industry, guitar shop, cocktail barman, health care support worker).
I was also a volunteer crew member for the Portsmouth RNLI lifeboat station.
I love being outdoors, definately more of a 'chatting over a drink' instead of a clubbing type person.
In February 2009 I set off on a 17 month bicycle tour from England to Australia, it changed my life in many ways.
Am now planning several shorter tours over the summer of 2011, before heading to St. Petersburg to teach English.

PHILOSOPHY

Be good to each other.
Try to experience as much as possible and to live life to the fullest.
