CURRENT MISSION

Settling in to my new place while building a business that I started and planning a trip to see the national parks in America (Jan 2019).

ABOUT ME

I love cooking and all things food and drink in fact. I love the hustle and bustle of the city, but nature more. I love being around kind and consciousness humans. I read a lot (mostly philosophy and self improvement, but fiction too). I am trying to get back in to yoga and I meditate everyday. That's my excuse for not exercising. I am very positive and I have a lot of energy so I try to get the most of of everyday. I keep a journal, I am very open and I love to talk and hear about people's journey through life and experience of the world. I love getting out to see live music, spoken word and photography exhibitions when when I can.

I should add the usual stuff about other cultures and people from all walks of life etc etc....but you've heard it all before so I'll save that, but of course it goes without saying.

I was a cocktail bartender by trade, and I have Greek-Cypriot origins. If you're curious about how I spend my working days, check out: www.icelydone.com for a clue!

PHILOSOPHY

My life is my message - Gandhi

....too much to tell here, I'll tell you over a glass of wine!
