About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To take life less seriously than I do already

ABOUT ME

I was born in Wales and since then large protions of my life have been spent moving around. I love to travel and to meet new people and to discover things that I could never have imagined. Having a laugh, learning stuff and collecting amazing experiences are top of my list of priorities.

Music, Movies, and Books

Far too many to meantion. I usually like French, Italian, Korean and independent/indie films as well as documentaries, film noir, Hong Kong, French New Wave, 70s Japanese, old classics and sometimes anything that kills an hour or two.

Same with books really, although I cant go wrong with anything by Hunter S Thompson, Tom Wolfe, Bill Bryson or Irvine Welsh.

Music? Anything, literally anything. Yup. Even country. As long as its not cheesy pop or broadway musicals - I like it. Sometimes however, nothing hits the spot like old-school jazz or drum and bass.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a walking encyclopedia of useless facts. Unfortunately I cant back any of them up but they are yours if you want them. I like to write and Im always interested in meeting others who write aswell. On the more practical side of things, if anyone needs any cooking tips Im always happy to share.
