Recently left my job in London government to travel in Sri Lanka and southern India for a few months. Now starting a few weeks of cycle touring in southern France and Spain.

Taking a break from London life to slow things down a bit - I’m hoping to meet new people and try new things along the way! Looking for good company and good chats.

Happy to help around the house and keen to share stories experiences and discuss whatever is going on in this world!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: just finished The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida which I loved. Now reading Flesh by David Szalay.

Films: just watched ‘I’m Still Here’. Next on my watchlist is The Promised Land

Music: diverse taste! Currently enjoying some Brazilian music from the 70s after watching the film I’m Still here. At home I listen to a lot of UK jungle and other dance music. But also happy to chill with some ambient or folk
