I have great interest in Spirituality and Psychology and I have read many books and watched TV programs on the subjects.

More recently I've been diving head first into Philosophy books by various Philosophers such as Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Heidegger, Plato, Socrates, Hume, Montaigne and Alain de Botton.
I am not much of a reader of novels and books as such but I'm very interested in the Discworld series of books by Terry Pratchett
