I am 22 years old, was born in India, moved countries a fair bit then moved to London when I was 8. I did most of my school and growing up etc. in London, then went to Chicago for a year where I studied lots of things (maths/philosophy/literature/biology/psychology/economics) before coming back to the UK to do a british-style BA in one subject (literature).

now I'm a journalist and work at the Financial Times.
