Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel the world without flying, but not in 80days!
ABOUT ME
I'm growing fast. Learning what life is all about. Love hitchiking, tramping & camping & I've sailed the seven seas ooh argggghh me hearteys!
In 2007 I began my round the world trip without flying. Since returning to London in 2010, I have now dedicated myself to a life of self sufficiency in suburbia. I have a 5 year plan to be able to provide all basic necessaities to survive e.g. food, water, shelter etc. Not laptops & chocolate bars!
It's been very hard going what with a full time job as an eco builder aswell but very rewarding.
I'm now heading to Ibiza by train, boat & bus, and am turning my sights towards an atlantic crossing by boat to the USA to complete the final portion of my non-flight circumnavigation.
Strange but true: I'm vegetarian, but I want to go hunting for food. Can you work it out?
I love doing everything, arts, technical, cooking whatever!
Really into chess right now and being more present & focussed.
PHILOSOPHY
Actions speak louder than words
Make it count
Be honest with yourself and others
Love your truth
Stay present and in the moment
You have 2 ears and 1 mouth for a reason
2 think is 2 create
Life is a work in progress till you die
