About Me

ABOUT ME

I am living in Jersey at the moment but would like to travel more in the future and photograph along the way.

I would say I am an open minded sort of person, get on with most people and love to learn and share new experiences especially with the help of CS.

PHILOSOPHY

“So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”
― Christopher McCandless
