CURRENT MISSION

Do cool things, see cool things, meet cool people

ABOUT ME

I've Finally finished school, and now have one beautiful year until university in which to work like a beast and gather money so that I can see as much of the rest of the world as possible. The one thing all my friends tell me constantly is that I am very easily pleased; I dont really 'do' nights out, much more of a chiller, to be honest; but adventerous all the same! Once a solo glider pilot, I am full of silly little abilities such as riding uni cycles, juggling, macrame (bracelet) making and other annoying things that I cant get enough of, mainly because I will learn how to do one thing, get bored, and decide to learn how to do something else.

I am also very musical, main instruments being piano and synthesizers, I have taught myself (in very unconventional ways) how to play guitar, bass, drums, harmonica and a tiny amount of trumpet.

As far as sports goes, I love to Waterski and Monoski as well as the odd cycle ride, although sadly havent been out for quite some time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flying low over the Arizona desert, mid morning, parallel with a large highway, with mountains in the distance and a hot sun beating down in the cockpit as a twelve year old. This was the first time I ever flew a plane and it was the most excited and most happy I have ever been...

...and then the sickly feeling that very afternoon as my stunt flying instructor flew quite happily for a good couple of minutes upside down. It doesnt sound too bad until you learn that we were in an open-top biplane!
