About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Fill my life with interesting experiences

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Delhi, where I work in Microfinance. I love it here, it's a city like no other I've ever been to but something about it draws you in.

I can be full of life, centre of the party at times. At other times, I like to spend time by myself, and do my own thinking for a while. Whilst I am not an expert, I find philosophy and various literature very interesting. I like poetry, and have written some completely awful poems of my own! Irish poet Michael Longley is my favorite (If you haven't heard, read 'Ulysses' or 'Ceasefire' in my opinion his two best poems) and also the war poetry of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon I find very moving.

I also love cooking, sport and the outdoors... anything to do with nature, and did I mention travel?!

PHILOSOPHY

Take risks. Life would be very boring if you didn't.
