The about pages tells you about me. The now page is designed to tell you all about what I am up to now.

Where

Now I am living in Peru, although I am from the UK originally. I live in Miraflores in Lima which I am thoroughly enjoying. I do airbnb here in my apartment which is generally really fun, meeting interesting people from around the world.

Health

I have just recovered from a sprained ankle. I play tennis and run slowly. I am trying to lose weight and am slowly going down. About ten years ago I weighted 115KG and chain smoked. Now I run three times a week and weight 92kg. Working on getting down to 80kg.Work

Work

I am still running my business, Vashon Media – a web development company, but it’s not going the way I want it to so I am working on improving this. I am also time looking at some other areas in which I can develop the business, so will see. 

I am also working on some other projects, which are keeping me amused. One of which is Vamos Lima, a guide to what is going on in Lima. This was inspired by my sisters Let’s go Ludlow page.

Family

Personally I am single and generally pretty happy with that, except I read that on average single childless people live 6 years less on average. So maybe it is time to either have a relationship, a child or both. Watch this space!

The rest of my family live in the UK, which is sad as I don’t see that much of them, but I keep in touch via zoom and Whatsapp. I am incredibly proud of them all.

Thanks for reading. If you are interested the Now Page is the idea of a guy called Derek Sivers. You can see what he is doing now here: https://sivers.org/now.
