CURRENT MISSION

Off to do some hardcore reporting in Beirut, crossing my fingers that my legs don't get blown off

ABOUT ME

I'm just starting a career in journalism, off to Beirut in a couple of months and hope to get a bit of globe trotting done before I go.

Love to travel, meet new people etc. Love playing music, will busk for a couch.

Anyone that owns a Bob Dylan record is ok with me, regardless of their criminal record or violent manner.

PHILOSOPHY

Socialism, Chomskyism.

I like people with a bit of a social conscience. Protest, dissent.
