About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To boldly go where other men have gone before

ABOUT ME

I am pretty wacky, somewhat cheeky, slightly crazy (ok ok - I can be plenty crazy sometimes :-)), and more than the usual amount of fun and interesting to be with.

I love interesting conversations - especially about travelling, adventure sports, philosophy, books, theatre and movies... so if that interests you, we should hang out sometime...

PHILOSOPHY

When all is said and done, make sure that less is said and more is done.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can read just about every book I can get my hands upon, but mainly prefer to read thrillers, science fiction, and books on economics and philosophy.

Ayn Rand is my favourite author.

My favourite movie of all time - well I have 3 favourite movies - Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and its sequel Before Sunset.

However, I somehow prefer theatres and musicals to movies - there is something about live acting that just can't be beaten!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got to fly a plane in New Zealand - a real plane - this was a twin-engine 2-seater plane and after taking off, the pilot gave me control of the plane at 3000 feet and then got me to flip the plane 360 degrees in the air like you see the fighter pilots doing on TV. It was a simply out-of-the-world experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to learn Salsa and Tango one of these days...

What can I teach you? Well, how about... "How to Partyyyy!" :-) More seriously, I have been an entrepreneur throughout my life - so if you ever get tired of your job and decide to start your own show, give me a shout...
