I am 19 years old and live in West Bromwich, England. My interests include sport, particularly the Olympic Games. The Olympics demonstrate the human race like nothing else can. Perhaps even more refreshing is that the Olympics is one of the few, if not the only, sporting event where it’s not all about coming first. It’s simply about giving your all.

“The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning, but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.”

Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games

Elsewhere on the Internet, I write for Sports Central. Sports Central is a sports opinion website where I contribute at least one article a month on numerous sporting topics.

As well as sport I do my best to keep on top of the latest political news. While I am not a communist myself, I have been intrigued by communism for many years now. As a result, I try to find out about any goings on in communist states such as China and North Korea. From the outside looking in communism seems a little flawed, however at some point in my life I would like to spend some time living in a communist state to see if my opinion of it changes.
