About Me

ABOUT ME

As mentioned above I am English but I'm am also half Canadian as my Dad came from Vancouver. This doesn't make me your regular Englishman. I'm about six foot with blue eyes and brown hair sometimes long and sometimes short. I have a few small scars from misadventures as a kid, one is across the top of my nose and happened when I jumped of my bed onto the corner of a set of drawers. I don't have any great party tricks although I can make a noise like an owl and juggle a staff.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm very easy going and have travelled mostly on my own so have met many people and enjoy learning about new cultures, as well as being happy with my own company. I'm open minded and non-judgemental and aways open to new experiences.
