About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world, meet some cool people,have fun and learn more terrible jokes

ABOUT ME

I like to think of myself as an open minded guy who thinks you should try everything once...well almost everything. I love snowboarding and feel hard done by growing up in the UK (no mountains!). I use to be a keen windsurfer but got fed up of the cold water in the UK but enjoy getting back in the water in tropical conditions. I dabble in wakeboarding and surfing and other sports where it easy to lose control (one day I'll learn).

Music wise I enjoy most genres aside from RnB. Reggae and electronica with a bit of dubstep on the side are probably my favourite. I think the world would be a much better place if everyone listend to reggae and surfed! I love old skool hip hop and rock.

I enjoy having a good party and love throwing some shapes down on the dance floor despite turning into a sweaty monster! But also like a chilled out night from time to time enjoying a glass of vino and movie with maybe a slice of cheese on the side.

PHILOSOPHY

If its fun I want to try

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was windsurfing in Eygpt and thought I saw a shark a little too close for comfert...next thing I know there are 6 or 7 dolphins racing along with me jumping out the water. It was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a trained organic chemist I can help with any science problems although they don't seem to arise much in day to day life. I'm pretty good with IT and setup my own IT repair company back home.
