"STEVE's WORLD" stevemt's Profile


About Moi :)

Well, I am a pretty ordinary guy really, I started travelling later in life than most but I got hooked as most do.

My interests are music (mainly classical - I play in an orchestra - but all types really except country, heavy metal and progressive jazz), cooking which I love, Travel, Snorkling, photography, and other sundry various things.

When travelling I like to get to the local communities, ie I eat local food (yes street as well) and not at the worldwide chains of fast food as many tourists do, I mean whats the point of travelling if you dont absorb the local culture and you cant do that in fast food restaurants.

I have this interest in visiting churches, Mosques, Synagogs etc, so you will see a lot of reviews on those here, BUT I am not religious, I just appreciate what they are and what they contain, (and the organs.)

Anyhows thats enough about Moi, if you want to know anything else just ask, I dont bite unless asked to :)

Please before you go any further, remember that I CANNOT SPELL

Music and me

This is actually a back on view of me playing in the orchestra. Most people would probably say it was my better side.

Me with Violin

I HATE being photographed but here you are

Work

I work for the Queensland Government as a customer service advisor, dealing with all aspects of government queries fielded to us by the public

    Hi Steve...sorry but I don't think Russ and I can make it this year. Things have come up and it will be a bit of a struggle to get down there.
    Hope all goes well. Will try to keep in touch with you all. If we do get down we will make our own arrangements. xxx

    Hi Steve, Sorry about the repeat message... How many days will we need for the "Meet" I am wanting to start booking flights and accommodation, any help with accommodation near the venues would be appreciated as we will not have transport. Thanks in anticipation. Cheers
    So sorry to have to cancel, but I may have to babysit in Singapore.
    Have a great meet and I hope to catch up another time.
    Cheers

    Hi Steve, thanks for the birthday wishes - belated or otherwise. I had to work :o( - and then spent the night in because my car is in hospital and it was pouring rain! Better luck next year!
