About Me

CURRENT MISSION

10 languages in 10 years

ABOUT ME

Travelling Web Guy running my own web dev business from wherever I can find an internet connection.

I left Australia about two years ago with an ambition to learn 10 languages in 10 years. My first stop was USA and I picked up 'merican pretty quickly. Now I'm in Buenos Aires to learn Spanish.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music
Mostly electro and italo disco. I listen to a lot of music while I work, and will give anything a go* as long as there is something playing.

Movies
It's pretty hard to top Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Johnny Depp, Benicio Del Toro, Terry Gilliam directing... forgetaboutit. Withnail and I is also a lot of fun. I love the classics of course; Taxi Driver, The Shining, The Birds ... anything by Scorsese or Kubrick or Hitchcock is going to be a winner.
I also have a guilty love for classic movies from the 80's. I will watch Never Ending Story any day of the week.

Books
In my earlier days I was a big fan of Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson, Percy Shelley. Later I loved Salman Rushdie and Umberto Eco. Nowadays I read kids books in Spanish.

* I have given Reggaeton a go ... and I'm sorry I just can't do it.
