      CERN. I love CERN (not the building they are old and falling to bits). It has 24km tunned at -269 degrees, using 10% of all the power in Geneva to accelerate protons and making them collide. You bump into Nobel prize winners in the cafeteria. Its amazing that all those countries agreed to have an international lab, it would never happen today.

      Japan is pretty cool too, you spend a few weeks not knowing exactly what you ate, and I slept through two earthquakes.

      The most interesting place I’ve been to is Albania. The countryside is extraordinarily beautiful and the people are so friendly and welcoming. Life is still so different to living in UK.

      With work; I worked in Hyundai Heavy Industries Shipyard in South Korea. This was amazing as i have never seen a shipyard so big before! this place was like its own city! it had shops, hotels, traffic lights, police, AMAZING! it took me 20 minutes to cycle from my office to the ship in the morning and all of this was inside the shipyard!

      for holidays; i recently went to Australia to visit family but drove down the Great Ocean Road by myself, the scenenry was amazing! and i got to see the odd wild koala and kangaroo on route 🙂

      Either, on top of JET – it was so amazing to be stood on top of an actual fusion reactor, that had so much history connected to it. Orrrrr… the Great Wall of China, that wall is cool.
