About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to keep my eyes and ears open.

ABOUT ME

-I'm really into anything creative, especially art, photography, design and architecture-but above all music! I DJ and have dabbled in producing my own music which I want to continue and develop further.
-I love travelling- to be travelling is to be truly alive. I've mostly been around Europe, my furthest trip has been 2 months in Cuba.
-I love meeting new people-to talk, swap ideas and stories.

PHILOSOPHY

-Enjoy life in every way you can- it's all too short. Travel as much as you can, it's an invaluable education that you can't receive from any college or university. Karma.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I saw hundreds of glow-worms that lit up the fields at night as I travelled the length of Cuba on their battered old railway system from Havana to Santiago whilst spending two months exploring the country.
