CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hey everyone, I'm Luke, I'm from the UK but I'm living in Seville for the next six months carrying out my thesis research.

I love cities and thinking about what goes on inside them and how to make them a better place for their inhabitants. Particularly in parts of the world most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. I love riding bikes, hiking, being outdoors and being in/by the sea. I consider my self to be a very openminded, ambitious, flexible kind of person who has a zest for adventure.

Particular interests include global politics, environmentalism, pop culture and queer politics.

PHILOSOPHY

'To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.'
- Arundhati Roy
