Overview
About Me
At times I'm a socialite and other time I'm a deep thinker. I know I've got a whole load to offer the world but I also believe that one only finds oil by drilling the same hole for a long time. I'm currently finding where I want to drill (ie. what my purpose/passion/drive is that I can stick to long term)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydiving. Human being never evolved to be 14000 ft above the ground and so to leave and plane and suddenly be up there in the air is such a surreal experience, seeing the land for miles, free falling through the air, the air rushing into my mouth (actually, my mouth rushing into the air) so that I have to turn my head to the side to breathe, feeling that if this parachute doesn't work, there's nothing left to do but enjoy my final moments being alive so all worries and fears and insecurities and thoughts become immediately irrelevant and I just experience the moment fully with no filters. Recommend it for anyone and everyone. The group I did it with included an 80 year old woman!
Teach, Learn, Share
I've been into self-development for a long time and have obtain a few insights about my own psychology. I've shared these with people in the past which has assisted them on their self-development journey and can with you if you like. Ask me anything.
I'd love to learn about different societies around the world including their political structures, cultural norms, social lifestyles, films, music, books, foods etc.
