Education and Qualifications

MSc Elec Eng. , Vaccum Wave Tube Engineering ,  — 

My 2-year masters degree was interrupted by a 6-8 month period, during which I worked at a research institute in Munich (Germany) ... actually an excuse to travel the world prior to starting work proper!

I spent 6 months working in Munich (1988-89), got to see the Berlin Wall before it came tumbling down, and enjoyed Oktoberfest with a lot of newly found friends from across the world.

Criss-crossing Europe, and finishing off with an idyllic few weeks in Mauritius, I have to wonder whether my travels weren't a better education than my education!
