Outside of school, Andres enjoys listening to his vinyl record collection which he insists is the best way to listen to music ­— unless it is live.  As a chorister in his early life Andres finds peace and harmony listening to and singing choral music. He is a keen photographer and hopes to add to his catalogue while in China.
