ABOUT ME

Free spirit who enjoys living, adventures, friends, meeting new people, trying new things, working hard for a purpose and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I quite like film documentaries, such as in the shadow of the moon, lemmy (which is great), anything coen brothers, bourne trilogy, pulp fiction, star wars, bridget jones, kick ass, pretty easy to please I guess!

Some of the best/most fun gigs I've been to; sugar hill gang, gomez, orbital, kings of leon, bruce springsteen, super furry animals, robert plant, franz ferdinand, george clinton and funkadelica

Books, i was hooked on the lisbeth salander story, david mitchell, robert harris, jonathan safran foyer, gabriela garcia marquez, jim shelly whose column's I think are hilarious.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been very lucky to have had the opportunity to work in and visit some amazing places. I've got a pretty bad memory so I'll start with Rome as I was there last week, amazing impressive city. Terracotta warriors and great wall, some huge mountains in West China, Vietnam as I lived there for a while, Borneo, Perentian Islands (off East coast of Malaysia) amazing snorkelling, free wheeling down the side of a mountain on a scooter in Laos, partying in Thailand, Brazil has some pretty special memories, as does Peru (its magical). I love Portugal (surfing and Lisbon) and Spain, I just like getting out there / anywhere, everywhere can have good points but those are some of the highlights.

Teach, Learn, Share

Heard this today and thought it was quite entertaining; You might win the rat race, but you're still a rat.

It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice
