If you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up. -Hunter S. Thompson

I was born and grew up in Cambridge, lived in a theraputic communtic with my family till I was 9 then a little down the road. From the age of 16 I grew up with the older Punks in Cambridge. When i was 18 I moved out of home and into 3 pubs over 5 years. I moved over a year ago to Eastbourne for a job as an Therapist to people with severe mental health issues. Im doing a post graduate diploma in group analytical psychotherapy. I'm back to cambridge in February to work as a Residential Project Worker.
Life is a hobby of mine and and im loving all the little twists and turns it takes me down. Everything is an experience and nothing to be taken for granted.
Ive recently discovered im not half bad at firebreathing (I still have my eyebrows)
Im a born Raver... love a good Party, but have learnt to have a good mix between work and going out.
Every now and again I turn into either a velociraptor or less frequently, Edward Sissor Hands, but dont let this bother you, your hedges are safe with me.
I've been told im a very intelligent person, I love conversation, the more abstract the better. I'm very much in touch with mine and others emotions and don't like to see people hurt. I've been through a lot in my life so far, but am looking forward to whats to come and enjoying what I have at the moment. I have now learnt honesty is the best policy, I haven't always been a saint, but i have learnt from my mistakes and I like who I am.
Ive spent a lot of time travelling from an early age: Ireland, Scotland, Wales, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Canada, Birmingham, Turkey, Italy (I've been a few times but my last visit I lived in a monestary in San Gimignano for over 3 months working as a maintenance man), Africa (went to go and stay in the slums in Nirobi t'was grand!). I have a great respect for other cultures and traditions. Im very adaptable, just go with the flow.
Ive got four earrings and a tattoo.
Im into all sorts of music, but love Psytrance, Breakbeak, a bit of Jungle, Old Skool HipHop, Reggea, Punk, Irish music, Classical, Tim Minchin, Muse, Placebo, Tracy Chapman, Coldplay, AudioBullys, Dub FX, Hybrid, Coldcut, Mylo, Prodigy, AphexTwin, Beatles, Simon and Garfunkle, Stope Roses and much more. Music is very important to me and I like it when people spend time with me letting me in on the music that helps them through life.
Reading is a great way for me to wind down and quite often get lost in the many different worlds that books have to offer. I like to do art and run the art group at work.
I'm not sure whether I believe in reincarnation, but a lot of people have said to me that they think i'm an old soul and I often get the feeling that I've been here before.
I also have Peter Pan syndrone. I suppose im fairly alternative and enjoy life and people.
I had a great childhood, and have a fantastic family and realise how lucky i am.
I dont drive yet, I'm doing an intensive course asap, but I can fly (I'm still working on my other powers)
