  • What else ...

    I like to keep active,believing in the power of exercise both physically and mentally.i love riding a bike and am fairly competent at most racket sports and I love swimming and being near water.
    Reading and trying to educate myself both for work and recreation is important to me as is interaction with people .
    I have travelled to various countries throughout my life and like to appreciate how other people live.
    I think work away is a wonderful thing especially for some one of my age,although I’m still young at heart.to experience new cultures and above all to keep learning and maintain human contact
