- InterestsRead more
David is a qualified PADI Rescue diver and is always on the lookout for the next diving opportunity. Having recently married, he is keen to make sure his wife shares the same passion! He also previously spent two winter seasons 'working' in the French Alps and snowboarding on a daily basis. These days he is still an avid snowboarder and tries to get away at least once a year.
In the barren months between diving and snowboarding, David fills his time by running (having completed the London Marathon in 2007 for the first and the last time), visits to the gym and wakeboarding at a local club. He is also an enthusiastic amateur cook with an obsession for Asian food.
