ABOUT ME
I've been in china for a few years now, and only in the Uk for about 3 of the last 15 years... Wa. Haha. I guess I've I'd a pretty colourful and exciting life, but sure it's quiet at times too.
Never thought I'd stay this long in china, but usually enjoying myself. Looking into the language now, finally, and managed to get to a lot of countries this side of the world. Still no Japan though... And plenty more of china to see yet
May learning and laughter be with you all >_~
PHILOSOPHY
Now is the only real time
be open and honest.. If you need to lie, you're doing something wrong
what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.. and smile and the world smiles back :)

i bought a boat and lived on a river in laos for a month. in one day i had rat for breakfast, rice whisky and raw pig fat at 10am, and later got offered a fat man's wife and two young daughters for $1.50 total.. crazy day.
i've quite a few stories to tell, but also ready to create new ones

Don't think you've stopedlearning just because you've left school. Keep your eyes open, and try and help others do likewise.. But don't push it.. It does take all sorts to make the world go round!
