One day I'll have my office on the Moon

Currently in: Borneo (home is Geneva)

Eulogy by Jon
Phil is many things to many people. A creative thinker, a builder, an opportunist. A relative, a friend. He is described in many different and all equally valid ways: alternative, mad, inspirational, comic, and my favourite: completely insane. He always seems to know where he is going and how he is going to get there, making damn sure people notice him along the way and taking great care not to forget from whence he came. Phil will go to space someday. I'll be proud to be there, doing his paperwork while he gazes back at Earth from his office on the Moon.

Where is your favourite holiday destination? Reaching Askja, Iceland, 500km through rocks and ice, crossing streams by sub-zero temperatures aboard a rugged 4x4, pretending this is the 1960s and I'm an astronaut about to be trained for a trip to the Moon.

If you could have had the starring role in one film already made, which film would you pick? Neil Armstrong, 1969, and this is no film.

If you weren't working where you are now, what would be your perfect job? Building a spaceport on the Moon
