I'm 34 years old and live on a farm in the South West of Australia with my wife and 2 young kids. We have 2500 sheep, two dogs and a cow.
When I'm not looking after our animals and kids, I play and record/produce music - I play in bands spanning genres from Trad Irish to Gothic Industrial.
I am a student and follower of Thelema, the spiritual philosophy conceived by Aleister Crowley, who was also a formidable chess player.
I often move reasonably quickly during the day, but I do have periods where things get hectic on the farm, in which case I will usually move once per day.
