  • Description

    So many things motivate me. exercise is of considerable importance to me, healthy body and mind, I cycle, swim, run and some strength training. Traveling to some of the far flung corners of the Pacific ocean always makes me happy, but also beyond the Pacific Ocean. I sail my Laser sailing boat in the harbour next to our home which in a stiff breeze can be quite a challenge and keeps me young. Time with my family is of great importance to me, both my children and my wife.

  • More details about your skills

    We have carried out numerous building projects on our big old home here in Hillsborough, Auckland. Many of these have been of quite a considerable undertaking and of a structural nature. I am an Aircraft Engineer and also have plenty of general engineering experience including welding and lathe work. I have also designed my own range of wooden lamp shades, check out my website, David Sier design.

  • What else ...

    Michelle and I have hosted lots of workawayers at out home here in Auckland over the last ten years and have enjoyed it very much, its healthy to keep exposing yourself to new things at any age of life and more important as you get older. I enjoy diving, a bit of free diving, snorkelling, long distant swimming and have done some long distant passages in a variety of sailing vessels.
