Bivouaking in Mount Hood national park out of season, where they filmed the shining, and hanging out a bunch of crazy gun nuts.
Learning and helping to film the process of forging damascus steel knife blades at in Sweden, where they make the Rolls Royce of Axes Gransfors Bruks
Teaching friction firelighting to autistic children (not my decision)
Receiving my Postgraduate diploma in Architecture: Advanced Environmental & Energy Studies from the Centre for Alternative technology
I have also studied been lucky enough to participate in a microhydro installations with the University of Glamorgan, included extensive theory, surveying and modeling to laying pipe and wiring.
Advanced First aid Remote Trauma - anybody need a glucose drip, or shot of adrenaline?
Basic Food Hygine - I got it, but the course did not include cooking bugs in the woods.
Loads of yoga, a little paid massage work, little mechanical engineering, a little computer work. Got my heart broken twice, and miss one special person like crazy, but I'm still smiling.
