About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See lots of stuff, get away from the daily grind, meet new people, experience some weird stuff (not particularly bothered what).

ABOUT ME

What's to say? The usual stuff (this feels awkward!). I like to think I'm fun and easy going, I work to pay for the things that I like to do, not because I think work is everything. I like a debate about politics and especially philosophy, and discussions about history, preferably over a beer. I like meeting new people, especially people who travel as they always have more interesting stories to tell.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy things, don't let the bastards grind you down! Don't take things to seriously.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead, 90s UK indie (Stone Roses, Primal Scream, Charlatans etc.), drum n bass, techno.
Books - anything that gets my interest, but I am a big JG Ballard fan.
Films - anything by David Lynch, Apocalypse Now, La Haine and anything French.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing is very subjective!

Teach, Learn, Share

Ha! Go into everything with an open mind. Don't judge a book by its cover. I have spent a lot of time in the past restoring canals which gave me an enormous respect for manual labour - try it!
