About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep a strong hold of those ropes and navigate those waters.

ABOUT ME

Half of me wants to be a professional working lawyer, melting blissfully into London life, and making the most of the opportunities around me. The other half of me wants to assimilate into Mexico, change my name and be bombarded with a brand new zeitgeist. I am incorrigibly divided, whether it is between man or woman, God or matter, romance or realism. Hell is both other people and being alone. I don't make my mind up easily, yet I am a very determined, albeit reckless, person.

I graduated from Durham University in July in Theology, and I am now studying for the Graduate Diploma in Law at City University, London. My degree made me skeptical of most things, yet I believe, still, in romance, and I will always see light in every single person I meet. So even if you're a dickhead, I will probably stick beside you and listen to you. I am the kind of person who would miss a train or a plane to meet you for coffee. I’d take a taxi across town to see you for ten minutes. If you call me and say ‘Will you…’ my answer is ‘Yes’, before your sentence is out.

I adore the thrill of skiing, sailing and running, I love traveling as much as I can, I love architecture, interior design and stumbling across new & ridiculous buildings. I build homes in my head constantly.

I am most happy when earphones are plugged in, and I am wandering a street market in the sunshine with a Falafel wrap in one hand, and a friend by my side. I am a perpetual daydreamer. My idealism may be the death of me someday. I crave escape always.

PHILOSOPHY

“She must find a boat and sail in it. No guarantee of shore. Only a conviction that what she wanted could exist, if she dared to find it.”

----

“Know thyself,’ said Socrates.
Know thyself,’ said Sappho, ‘and make sure that the Church never finds out.”

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was Editor of my University Newspaper....? I haven't done enough that is amazing yet. But I did think that Darwin, in North Australia was one of the most amazing, bizarre and liberating places on the planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like people who make me smile, and others who make me think. I hope to do the same for you.
