CURRENT MISSION

state my wanderlust with a bicycle trip through Austria/Germany.... unles my knees give out.

ABOUT ME

I am currently studying for a PhD in Physics at the University of Auckland. From time to time I skive off and go surfing or visit another country. Naturally this is not conducive to actually finishing my study. I'm trying and apparently failing to learn German.

PHILOSOPHY

"I'll get back to you". I will, really.
