I am married with a wife and daughter and have lived on the south coast of England for much of my life.
​
Attended the Royal Hospital School and ignored all advice and became an architect. Learnt to appreciate music at school and enjoy all music as long as it moves you.
​
Enjoy sports and played a good standard of rugby and cricket when younger but now enjoy cycling and kayaking. Keep active now for fitness and good mental health.
​
I like to cook good healthy food which people enjoy eating rather than the cult of the masterchef. Like recreating food I have enjoyed on holidays and seasonal food.
​
I like to travel and enjoy seeing places not in guidebooks and planning my own trips. I like to see something different and understand a place.
I could spend a lifetime travelling around Italy - exploring its endless charms

MY STORY
A life travelled off the beaten track is a life less ordinary
