Hobbies and Interests

Music & Action Activity Interests

As well as the creative interests that can be seen all over this portfolio website I amn very much into guitar based rock music genres such as Nu-metal, Grunge, Pop Punk, Britpop and similar. Usually found in the most active part of the dance floor or on a raised stage or platform, in moshpits, crowd surfing, dance offs and would be one of the first to get up on a dance floor, on stage party games or karaoke.

I also enjoy trying new adventure activities which have included scuba diving with sharks, walking tigers, flying lessons, skydiving, joining in the record breaking attempts for the most pinatas smashed, pizzas tossed and simultaneous trampoline sessions, plus lots more than these photos show including painball, jetskiing, surfing, skiing, hover craft racing, stunt car driver training, horse riding, power kiting and more.
Low level chopper flight at an Australian outback cattle ranch. For most of the flight this was below tree top level weaving in and out full speed.
Apologies for language at the end but was very emotional at the end.
Visit to what was then thought to be an orphaned tiger sanctuary. Here walked amongst 8 loose tigers ranging from child to full size alpha with several fairly lively and play fighting with each other.

One of many shark SCUBA dives in Thailand and Australia. This one involved 9 grey nurse sharks at the Manley Aquarium.

Skydive over one of the biggest super volcanos in the world. Capable of wiping out New Zealand if it erupted, the lake seen IS the volcano opening.
