Philip is half English and half Swiss and grew up in a village, not far from the Alps where cows yodel and where the air smells of cheese, chocolate and money – in Switzerland. In his previous life before acting he did what every Swiss does: He worked at a bank. Philip also served in the Swiss Air Force, studied business management and worked in London’s real estate business. He speaks Swiss-German, German, English, French and a little Japanese.
