About Me

I'd guess it would be fair to say my interests are as varied, random and wonderful as the people I choose to surround myself with.

I love going on spontaneous adventures, be it pointing to a spot on a map and jumping on a train or investigating mythical eateries, shops and buildings found through my wikipedia addiction. At other times rummaging around second-hand shops looking for vintage suits and old records that no one else owns seems like the most important thing in the world.

Watching indie films and documentaries while eating greek food rate pretty highly on my 'things to do when hung over on a Sunday' list. Going to the cinema, visiting museums, drinking coffee and listening to Tom Waits, Bob Dylan on the tube help me fill the weekends before I venture out on a pub crawl, 40's and 50's nights or to drinking assorted expensive mixed drinks.
