About Me:
I've been working in education for a number of years as a Multimedia and systems practitioner developing and supporting educational programmes and systems. I spent most of my teenage life living in South London and have recently returned after a sabbatical in South Wales actively participating in a number of Welsh community projects planting trees, tending to bees and learning about sustainability hands on setting up solar, water and wind generators building turf roof homes, yurts, making tipi's and growing food the most painful but soul rewarding was hand picking over 35,000 acorns on a windy weekend and bagging them to be sown. I have access to a small garden which I plan to convert and grow my own.

Dear Felix, Thanks for a great video! That man can laugh for England. It's dynamic and reflects the atmosphere so well. You are a star and a talented film maker.

Thanks for the kind offer. It would definitely be good to make a video at some point, then we could put it up on our webpage to get other students interested and maybe show it in union at SOAS.
But I think maybe it would be better to do it at the beginning of the next acedemic year in october because there'll only be a couple of us around over the summer tending to the garden. Maybe, if it interests you, we could make it into a bit of a thinkpiece about the food system in general. We started this society this year and its gone really well,what with getting the garden and funding and all but some of us feel it would be good for the society to get more of a sense of purpose and engagement with the issues.
If you'd like to visit the garden at all and see what we're up to let me know.
Many thanks
