What is your idea of a perfect day?

When I wake up before the alarm sets off, survive a personal training session before finding a sunny spot to enjoy some (justified!) tapas and a chilled glass of Fino with friends/family.

What is the one app or program you simply cannot live without?

Currently, it’s Duolingo to learn Spanish. The nifty ‘streak’ feature keeps me going purely because I don’t want to lose my streak record.

What is your life motto/mantra you try to live by?

“Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.”
