About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Searching....searching!!

ABOUT ME

I'm generally floating around the world, but with an aim of becoming fluent in Spanish.
Love ALL sport (playing, not so much watching others play), Football being the number 1 for me!
Love snowboarding and am searching for some kind of business to start, leaning towards tourism.....who would want to stop moving around this earth and seeing all it has to offer!!

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans" (or did I steal that from John Lennon?!)

"don't eat yellow snow"
"don't piss up slopes"
"don't spit while riding a bicycle downhill"
"don't iron clothes whilst wearing them"
"when putting thumb tacks into bulletin boards, push on the flat end"

Interests

Everything!! You can make anything fun, no matter how boring it may appear!
Less philosophical answer....
Football, surfing, snowboarding, music, movies, language, reading and of course, travelling!
