One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most relevant to this site is probably my hitchhike from London to Morocco three years ago. Was amazingly fun (and also very frustrating at times). Great experience.

I've got quite diverse interests and always happy to share those and teach, anything from science to cooking.
