Welcome to my blog.

Inspired by my wonderful girlfriend, the ace writer Zoe Lambert, to get some of my ramblings onto paper/screen, and with the sole ambition to be a bit more creative, I've come up with this thing here on which to witter.

In September 2015 I emigrated to Berlin to escape a generation of Tory rule in England, and to chance my arm in one of my favourite cities in the world. But love conquered all and I returned to Brexit Island to be with my girl. As of October 2019 I am studying a PhD in environmental peacebuilding and resource conservation at Lancaster University and the University of Manchester.

This blog is a rambling collection of posts about my PhD, some old tales about Berlin, a bit of music, most likely some politics, and other half-arsed odds and ends thrown in.

So have a wander around. You never know what you might learn.

If you want to contact me for any reason, my email address is matt.g.hanley(at)gmail.com.
