Interesses: My hobbies are sport, travel and cooking.
My favourite sports are football, cricket and rugby. I particularly enjoy watching the Olympic games, and was fortunate enough to attend some of the games at the London Olympics in 2012. A great experience.
Travel has enabled me to meet people from different countries with different cultures and help to broaden my view of life. Travel has also provided me with some amazing experiences such as swimming with Dusky Dolphins off the coast of kaikoura in New Zealand, helicopter rides over the Grand Canyon in the USA, and the '12 Apostles' off the southern coast of Australia.
Travel certainly enriches your life.
I enjoy cooking and find it relaxing! There's the reward of a delicious meal at the end of your work. I enjoy many different cuisines. In particularly, Thai and Indian food.
There's nothing quite like a Singapore food centre. The colours, smells and world cuisines all mixing together are an unforgettable experience.
