I grew up in Kent, "The Garden of England" and have ended up living in Beverley, East Yorkshire via Bangkok, where I taught English as a Foreign Language for almost seven years. From 2004 to 2007, I studied BSc (Hons) Wildlife and Countryside Conservation, leaving with a first class degree and the desire never to work for anyone else again. To this end I have embarked upon a number of internet projects in order to pay the bills - unfortunately the bills are rather larger than the websites and I am forced to work part time in a dreary supermarket.

For those wishing to communicate with me, I can be reached by e-mail: nickupton@nickupton.com
