About everything:
Fancy knowing a little more about me ...?
I enjoy reading, writing, photography, archery, drawing, listening to music, pretending to be a cowboy, walking, being in the cold, making people laugh, researching 'things wot interest me', jousting, cooking, knife and axe throwing, being spontaneous and collecting skulls. I also have a soft spot for strawberries and long jackets. I don't like violence (although it is interesting), mayonnaise, numbers, cities, fake tan, humourless people, deadlines, pork, politicians and dresses. I don't plan to grow up. Ever. But my plans for the future ...? I would like to become a stand up comedian, or a proffessional novelist, or an environmental savior. Or perhaps a bit of all three.
A bit about Project Trust ...
Project Trust is an educational volunteering charity. They send volunteers aged 17-19 years old (such as myself) to foreign countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Carribean to work as a valued member of a local community on 8 and 12 month programs. Project Trust has existed since 1967, and send only a handful of handpicked volunteers overseas each year. If you want to find out more about Project Trust, please follow this link to go to their website (it's a bit snazzier than mine): https://www.projecttrust.org.uk/index.php
And last but not least, about Malaysia ...
Malaysia offers a little bit of everything. Some parts have developed rapidly in the last twenty years while others remain much more traditional and considerably poorer. Large numbers of factories exporting to the West have helped make some people rich but the countryside is still dominated by vast oil palm and rubber tree plantations. There are still large areas of rainforest, particularly in the eastern regions of Malaysian Borneo.
