Ben has recently jacked in his full time job as a Project/Cost Manager to try and take a less stressful approach to life.  He is still working a few days a week as a consultant, but intends to spend more time doing the stuff he really wants to do.  Travelling to different countries and experiencing diverse cultures has always been a big part of his life from family holidays in Greece and France as a child to some big early twenty's adventures to Thailand, riding the Trans Siberian Express and driving around Southern States of the USA.

Over the last thirty years Ben has traveled extensively in South East Asia.
