CURRENT MISSION

see world by motorcycle, meet people and enjoy life

ABOUT ME

I am outgoing, adventurous and love to discover and learn new things. I Love to meet new people, party and have wild nights, listen to live music, chill out in new paces, drink tea, coffee, beer relax and watch the world go by.
I'm a design engineer & sculptor, in fact i do this a lot designing, creating and mending stuff is kinda automatic so might fix things if i find there broken!
Im a big fan of two wheels and spend a lot of time riding, mending and building motorbikes and bicycles.
Being silly is very important and a lot of fun.
I love the outdoors and the countryside, walking, camping, horse riding, animals & nature and miss my cat when im travelling, she is well cute.
Museums are great especially those design related, so are ancient ruins and love to visit all. Im a very trusting and honest person, and being english i really like tea.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning, There is always a way, be happy dont worry. keep the rubber side down! (motorbike ref.)

Interests

Hmm, well i seem to have kind of doen this above... so here is some more and a bit of the same but different.....
Making lighting and furniture, sculpture and installation artwork. Travelling, meeting new people, listening to other peoples points of view, discussing most things, live music, partying and wild nights, pretty much all music! i know thats super annoying but its true, dub-step, electro, reggae for partying (though not exclusively) Jazz, folk, country and classical for chilling. Its all great.

Getting drunk and tipsy with other awesome people, beer, whiskey & cocktails. pre-prohibition cocktails are amazing! Cooking and food, reading, relaxing drinking tea, my morning coffee... this can be very important!.

Motorbikes especially classic's and cafe racers - old school 60's super shiny polished and pretty- steam engines; because the mechanics are amazing and they smell great! Cycling and exploring cities by bicycle.
