CURRENT MISSION

Growing up...

ABOUT ME

I hate filling out these types of forms. I grew up in London. I studied History at Edinburgh University. I've lived in China and Slovakia. I've always been an outdoors type person and love hiking and camping. There's nothing better than swimming in the sea. I've been a judge on a Chinese talent competition (despite speaking mediocre Chinese and being completely talent-less). I dislike wine but love beer. I've always wanted to play a musical instrument but am sadly tone-deaf. My friends are very important to me and I love meeting new people. A cup of tea solves most things and I consider Jurassic Park a Christmas film. I'm currently deciding what I want to do with my life but it's an ongoing issue.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

Hiking up the highest sand dune at Midnight in the Western Saharan desert. We decided to climb it during a minor sandstorm and my body was entirely exhausted but once we finally reached the peak the view was unparalleled. The Berber man that went with us had some incredible stories about journeying across the desert from his home in Algeria and was kind enough to lend me a turban to keep the sand out of my face.
