Music, Movies, and Books

Music: It's hard to define as I pick and choose what I like across a number of artists, styles and genres and it constantly changes with time

Books: Lots! The latest ones are... Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, 1984, The Art of Frugal Hedonism and A Map of Days (and currently reading Move your DNA and The Stress of Life... I haven't finished but I can tell they are likely to become favourites)

Movies: Harry Potter series, Memento, We need to talk about Kevin... more a bibliophile than a cinephile

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Enjoying a thermal bath on an Antarctic beach

Teach, Learn, Share

I have an eclectic mix of hobbies and interests. I'm no master at any but very happy to share what I know with those who are interested.

I am also very interested to hear about others' travelling experiences and different ways people choose to do life
