I hail from the small British island of Guernsey, where I run a youth work project, coach boxing, swim in the sea and live life. I have enormous joie de vivre. I love to meet new people, to travel, to camp, explore and spend good time with good people. I am compassionate and love to listen. I love kids; their natural joy makes my heart sing. I love to write and to read. Presently I am reading Thomas Sowell, Conquest and Cultures and Bessel v d Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score. I also love red wine and cold beer.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I can't think what to put, so I will cheat, if I may. Started a youth work organisation. Buy a one-way ticket from my island to places I'd never been - twice :-). Won a boxing bout with one arm.
