CURRENT MISSION

To find my place in this world with like-minded, spiritually aware, positive and fun people wanting to live a more sustainable life

ABOUT ME

Friendly, kind, helpful, sincere, creative, curious about people,cultures, life..., humorous,conservatively adventurous and alternative in my outlook and philosophy. Love to laugh (British sense of humour -bit dry!) Like my own company (mostly) and love the company of interesting, positive people who love ideas and who are looking forward and contributing in ways both big and small to a fairer and more sustainable world.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in a benevolent, miraculous Universe/God -not religious exactly- bit wary of labels -but try to do my best and live by a simple code of morality while trying to help my fellow travellers on this path through Life. Throughout my life have felt connected to something much greater Increasingly interested in positive thinking and how the negativity of the world effects you if you let it.
