About Me

Hey, I'm Alex. Just graduated from Queen Mary [London] with a degree in Human Geography. My music tastes are varied, I like alternative, rock, reggae, ska, world and 80's music. I used to paint and play the trumpet. My favourite artists are Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. One of my best achievements was completing the Nijmegen Marches [Vierdaagse] in 2003, which meant marching 160km in 4 days in the Netherlands. I love travelling and experiencing new cultures and cuisines. Anything else u want to know, just ask me and find out!
