Originally from the UK I'm mostly nomadic and been travelling for nearly 40 years. The past 20 with my partner Darren, who's on my profile pix. Travelled with my son for much of his childhood although I did attempt to give him some stability and stay in one place a while. That was really hard! Presently we spend about half the year in Thailand and we're usually around Asia somewhere. My astrology chart says I'm most at home on the road. We tend to spend longer periods in one place rather than constant travel. I love alternative lifestyles and thinking . Freedom is really important and Covid was a nightmare but fortunately we were in NZ so bought a campervan and travelled around there which was amazing and I didn't feel restricted like the rest of the world seemed to be. My son lives in Oz which I've got a soft spot for and do love the nature there. I'm a Jacky of All Trades, whatever it takes to get me on the road. Where there's a Will there's a Way and I've always had the Will!

Music, Movies, and Books

Soul music was my first love then Punk. (Actually it was the Osmonds but Shhh!)
Don't mind a bit of Disco, Rock, Ska, Blues.
Partyed my way through the 90s and was part of the Goa trance scene living several seasons there.
Raved at lotsa festivals and love Techno / Hard House and other dance music tho prefer it a bit slower these days! We still love a good party but prefer them to start early so I can go to bed by 3am! Preferably with mixed ages
Like lotsa music styles really....
Fantasy books are a fave but any good books that grab me
Favourite films are Fantasy and Kids films. Ice Age and Madagascar series stand out.
I read/listen to a lot of personal development stuff.
