CURRENT MISSION

To get a carreer in investment banking so I can get a loan so I can get a house where I can park my car and watch my big TV and bring up my kids to do exactly the same.

ABOUT ME

Hi there!!!! Class A96 Hominid with an unquenchable thirst for travel of the great fun type. Studying Russian at the university of Glasgow and now dealing with the consequences. Spending 3rd year of uni in Moskou starting from september 2008, and will be passing by Tallinn and Saint Holy Petersborough on the way there so we would be absolutely delighted to meet some interesting people on the way to share a laugh and a beer or two! I have a little flat in the West End of Glasgow which will sleep any number of people (there is physical space in there for about 70 sleepers if you guys don't need to breathe or move around too much) BUT: this is only available until the 23rd of August 2008 as we will be departing for Russia following the aforementioned route. All wackos welcome!

PHILOSOPHY

Love, be as curious as possible, discover, learn, be shocked, respect, never ever grow up, be as silly as possible, share, think, think again, oh! while we're at it: I believe we can achieve great happiness through an endless succession of little pleasures.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I won't go into this.. it's far too complicated. And what if I list a book or film or song which you detest? You probably won't want us sleeping on your cold marble floor..!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Surely we can leave this bit for when we crack open that last bottle of wine you mentioned you had somewhere...

1) When you make Gazpacho, always leave the skin on the cucumber as this will cancel the acidic effect of raw garlic on your digestion. No more embarrassing garlic-burps: wheeee!

2) Once upon a time there were three red lobsters. One of them developed an itchy underbelly, and as you know lobsters have their bony legs protuding from that same area, so no matter how hard he tried he found it quite impossible to scratch himself, thus living in perpetual despair. The second one was a lobster of sparse words, frequently seen taking a nap under a patch of an unidentified form of marine vegetation. The third was, to put it quite bluntly, a complete idiot. He delighted in dangling his hairy antennae into peoples meals when they were trying to eat, and he also secretly collected obscenely shaped pebbles and empty shells. Anyway: One blue day, just when the first rays of the sun were beginning their sinuous dance with the cold shadows against the sandy seabed, a visitor poked his nostrils through the thick kelp. Green eyes followed, and a thin toungue ran swiftly along the edges of a rather gnarled snout, somehow avoiding the smattering of oddly shaped teeth of various degrees of sharpness.

If you are interested in the outcome of the story, offer us your cold marble floor to sleep on, and I will gladly produce a satisfying ending.
