what goes around comes around - in some way, not always how you think it will, but I reckon it does.
Life is there to be lived, you must be happy and enjoy your life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books, I have little time for right now but I have read many good books, I like historical books, biographies and novels. the last novel I read was the gambler by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. it was interesting. The last biography or similar was Bravo 2 zero by Andy Mcnab, its a pretty amazing read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I Have swum 1km in water with a temperature of 0c. It was pretty crazy but every weekend in the winter its similar to that.
Also I did a parachute jump.
Probably a lot of others as well but small things - they can also be amazing and I can't think of any now - typical !

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always open to learning. I also like teaching, I am an english teacher. Teaching gives you a good feeling.
skills, I think I have a few. I am semi-skilled watch repairer meaning i can work on a variety of timepieces, but not difficult complications or clocks. Right now I am having a break from this career though.
