      HOBBIES AND INTERESTS:

 

When ever possible I enjoy a bit of sport. Whether it be energetic sports such as Sky Diving, Bungy Jumping and Caving or the lesser adventurous sports such as Horse Riding, Tennis, and Soccer.

I successfully completed the New York Marathon several years ago, which I consider to be my main sporting achievement. This led to several prestigious invitations including a presentation evening with H.R.H The Duke of Edinburgh.

Travel has always intrigued me. Over the past decade I have encountered different cultures in Europe, America, Australia and The Far East.

I recently successfully completed the TAFE Information Technology Certificate IV obtaining straight "A"s.

During quieter periods I simply enjoy relaxing with music.
