About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have a good time and meet people on the way.

ABOUT ME

I'm a computer scientist and love technology, but I am also completely in awe of the natural world. I enjoy having my views challenged, and finding new ways to look at things. I would really like to travel more than I have, and number one on my list right now is the arctic circle to see the northern lights. Politically I'm a socialist and hope that the world gradually becomes more left wing.

PHILOSOPHY

Experience what life has to offer and live in the moment; be thoughtful and care for humankind; admit to wrongs, and have the courage to change your mind. And try not to take more than you need.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Computer programming (I currently know ML, prolog, java and C++), as well as general how technology works.
