About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and meet people.

ABOUT ME

Kind, bookish 49 year old. I enjoy travel, languages, motorcycling, natural history, engineering and architecture, amongst all the other wonderful things that life has to offer.
i really enjoy inspiring young people to develop a greater interest in the natural history that is around them.

PHILOSOPHY

To be an ambassador for my culture and my country.
Every day as if it is my last and every day as if it is my first. Works for me...
