About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Capturing my face in front of every kind of beautiful landscape

ABOUT ME

I am geeky and proud of it =P Exploration is cool and experiencing a new culture or a new landscape that is different to my own is very fun. I love sports, especially kayaking, including sea, whitewater and canoe polo. Unfortunately I am taking a hiatus from kayaking for a few months as I haven't found a club close to me but I have recently gotten into Shaolin Kungfu, which I enjoy very much, because there are lots of fun spinney and jumpy kicks. Nevermind that it is not very practical, as long as it looks cool right? I also play the guitar, but just for fun, and I am singing in a band right now with a cool bunch of dudes who are also students. Oh, and have I mentioned? I love science, hence the degree in regenerative medicine =)

PHILOSOPHY

Always push and improve yourself, but appreciate others too

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking at Calanques de Casis, the view was absolutely incredible!!!

Tried to cycle 60 miles from Cardiff to Hay on Wye and failed to get there in the rain, but it was an unforgettable trip that was still amazing in many ways.
