Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
DO THE THINGS I WANT TO DO AND HELP PEOPLE OUT IF I CAN
ABOUT ME
I've been a student full or part time for some years, so I host a lot of students! I currently work in education and before that I worked in theatre. I do quite a lot of hosting; I'm usually happy to help. I particularly enjoy travelling mainly to support my interest in art history - and food and wine of course.
PHILOSOPHY
My personal philosophy is to be free to try to do more good than harm.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite authors are Tolstoy, Dosteovsky, Proust and Dickens. I see a lot of films and have a very broad taste in cinema. The only films I can't stand are 'chick flicks'. I listen to a lot of Indie and rock music, but I have quite a broad taste overall!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I have ever done and that I continue to aspire to do is to motivate dissafected kids to learn. Actually that sounds a bit arrogant so I'd rather say I like growing stuff in my garden!
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a good knowledge of art history. I can cook when I'm not too lazy...
