I finished a 4 year university degree & went straight into full time work. Unfortunately 8 months in I received news that I would be made redundant.

Now I have 2 options:
1) Find another job & build holiday leave from scratch
2) Use what money I have saved & set off for an around the world adventure

You know which one I've taken ;)

When life gives you lemons, I'll cut those suckers up & use them with tequila!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: ok so here is where people usually say everything except country & screaming. Well I listen to everything from the acoustics of Angus & Julia Stone or Bon Iver to the heaviness of Parkway Drive & A Day To Remember. I don't actively listen to say country or opera but would be open to going to a live concert & experience & appreciate their talent.

Books: I read few books mainly revolving around finance such as Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki or Warren Buffet. However I enjoyed Mao's Last Dancer, Wolf of Wall Street & have just read UFC fighter Mark Hunt's autobiography.
- open to recommendations here :)

Movies: Gran Torino, Step Brothers, The Wolf of Walls Street, Into the Wild, Inception, Spirited Away, Interstellar, Django Unchained, Deadpool

TV Shows: Skins, Suits, Misfits, Brooklyn Nine Nine, Breaking Bad, Weeds, Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, Fargo
