Bio: Alex

Alex Norman
PhD Candidate, cask ale fundamentalist, wannabe photographer, President

The last time he updated this page Alex wasn’t dead, at least in so far as he could ascertain. He is a postgraduate student with the Department of Studies in Religion at the University of Sydney, where he is writing about the role of travel in contemporary Western spiritual life. Really, this is just an excuse for him to travel. It seems to have worked so far, and you can read a bit about it here.

As well as being a student he sometimes also masquerades as a ‘teacher’, tutoring 1^st year religious studies students (one of whom recently remarked that with a hangover and a coffee he reminded her of Jack Black… Alex takes this as a compliment… he thinks it means he is ‘cool’). He also loves making photos, eating pickled fish, and generally annoying people by saying ‘OK’ a lot. Oh, and he thinks he can speak French, but he can’t. OK?
