About me

Like music, art, history, computers (technology in general) and current events.

Play a bit of sport, mainly soccer, er make that football, and tennis. Enjoy going for runs in the evening when all the cars are off the road.

I only speak English ... which is a shame. I should remedy that one day!

My work

Uni student, Political Studies, yes a lazy Arts student. Part-time Photographic Laboratory Operator. Title sounds good eh, that's really what it says on the job description. I spend my weekends developing and printing photo's for the fine people of Ponsonby.
