Only the indoor skydiving to come so far...going backpacking in Vietnam in Dec, doing some offroad segway rallying in Oct...there are so many ways to have fun. Day at the races, the Proms or Glyndebourne, my ultimate now is world cup tix.
Just want to do everything I can, hell, I might die tomorrow. But if I do I can honestly say I will have died happy and pretty much fulfilled. I'm not rich but I can afford the litttle things that make life more fun, and I have worked really bloody hard for it.

Never been to Vietnam before, but have travelled parts of India and Thailand which have genuinely been amongst the most joyous experiences ever. I'm an accountant, but my passion is for cooking so I have done cookery schools in both of those countries. Plus bathed baby elephants, plus shared a pleasant evening with Indian gangsters :P I get into some danger but I'm not stupid. I just want to live the life I've been given, and live it as fully as possible.
I'm really quite excited about Vietnam (apart from the food) - it has such a peculiar cultural / historical blend but I need to research some more...we are flying in to Ho Chi Minh but planning to travel out from there. Only have just over 2 weeks unfortunately, I'm quite restricted with travel timing in my profession.
