Too many books to list E.M. Remarque, H.de Balzac, Dostoyevsky, H.G. Wells and J. Kerouac are probably most memorable encounters from childhood. Now I'm lucky if I can fit a chick-flick between boring work-related books. Music - nothing really beats Lenny Kravitz and Coldplay but currently going bonkers for London Grammer.

The most amazing thing I have ever done is probably the fact that I managed to produce a little boy who is as passionate about travelling as I am. Second will probably be the little girl I delivered on my birthday night many many years ago during my midwifery placement. Never to be forgotten.
