Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I have pretty electic music tastes, I'll listen to everything from classical to electronica, reggae to rock. Currently a fan of Neil Young, Shapeshifter, Radiohead, Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam and Breaks Co-Op.

Movies: Again pretty electic, although I prefer films that make you think. Constant Gardener, Step into Liquid, Into the Wild, Wall-E,Fight-Club, City of Men, Motorcycle Diaries, Raiders of the Lost Ark & Blood Diamond. I also really enjoyed the LongWayRound & LongWayDown tv series.

Books: Love non-fiction adventure books, although read quite a few biographies too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling in South America for over 9 months, I lived in La Paz, Bolivia on the Altiplano. Each day being woken by the sun pouring in through the window at 3600m above sea level.
Also hiking in Patagonia and camping next to glaciers is an experience I'll never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to teach on learn to sail courses.
I'm currently learning spanish, keen to learn how to speak & understand the language better.
