Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: love real stories but also a bit of fantasy, generally a fan of light comedies with a recent interest in Spanish movies (Almodovar etc.)

Music: Really anything that lights up the day / mood with the exception of house/techno/rap

Books: prefer specialist literature / magazines around food/drinks, management, travel, philosophies, daily affairs

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the highlights in my life was certainly the active participation in the carnival in Rio in Feb 09, moving down the samba drome in seahorse outfits and being carried away by the experience itself - amazing!

To the most beautiful natural highlights I would count Foz do Igazu waterfalls in Brazil and Chapada Diamantina national park in Bahia, Brazil
