About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Have fun

ABOUT ME

Alpine and Ski Cross racer, don't care much for money yet, just like to have fun, meet people and do A LOT of sport.

PHILOSOPHY

l hope to live life as it comes, spend most of my time in the mountains and be as down too earth and friendly as possible towards everyone I meet. Athiest but respect and understand all religions. I guess I'm bit of a socialist.

Music, Movies, and Books

https://soundcloud.com/mellowpeak So much music it's best to just look at my sound cloud.
Read most teachings of Marx, Russel, Nietzsche, Kafka and Satre.
Favourite poets are: Rossetti, Poe, Tennyson and Browning (although I don't like Yeats as a person, I love his poem The Stolen Child).
Read a tonne basically.
Loads of movies, too many to name.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've climbed so many mountains throughout Europe, had a successful and challenging ski race career, through it I've raced internationally in South America, Slovenia, Austria, France, Italy and Switzerland. I've already experienced much of nature, and just want to keep exploring.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything to do with the sports and hobbies of mine, learning to become a mountain leader and getting qualified in all outdoor activities, would be proud to share my knowledge.
I'm experienced working with resistant materials.
Can share much of my literary / philosophical knowledge.
Can't play any instruments, but want to learn the Jean de Florette theme on the harmonica.
