Who Are You? Billy Hampton

Age: 21.
Occupation: Heritage Interpreter at the Atlas Coal Mine.   
Where are you from originally? Saskatoon, but I’m doing geography at Queen’s University in Ontario.
What do you like most about Drumheller? The landscape. Driving between East Coulee and Drumheller never disappoints.
Any travel destinations on your bucket list? The Yukon. In Grade 4 we learned all about the Klondike Gold Rush and, after working here, I think it would be a cool thing to explore.
When and where would you go in time? Ancient Greece or Rome.
Who would you like to hang out with for a day? The guy from Modest Mouse, or at least him from the 90’s. I like what he sings and writes about.
Any hobbies? Exploring and music.
Do you collect anything? Maps, which goes with being in geography.
What is your most memorable childhood toy? My collection of Thomas Trains when I was three or five.
Favourite movies: I watched The Fifth Element the other day and it blew my mind.
What’s on your playlist? I have a lot of rock, hip-hop, electronic, and pop. I like a good 80’s synth pop jam.
What would be your theme song? “Burning Down the House” by Talking Heads.
Words of wisdom? Be nice to everybody.
