John Hall, My Geography Teacher At School Inspired Me To A Lifelong Interest In Geography And A Curiosity About Our World Which Has Stayed With Me Through My Life. Geography Is A Living, Breathing Subject, Constantly Adapting Itself To Change. It Is Dynamic And Relevant. For Me Geography Is A Great Adventure With A Purpose.

I Will Die, But Not Retire.
