ABOUT ME
I'm 25 and have lived in London most of my life. I graduated university a couple of years ago where I studied Classics. I'm currently working at a law school but have given this role up to spend some time travelling over the next year. I live in the heart of London in a lovely flat in Marylebone and recently decided to escape the rat race of the city and do a bit of exploring outside the London bubble.
I'll be doing some volunteer teaching work in Malawi in Jan 2012 for 6 months and I wanted to do some travelling in the states before then.
I'm a fairly normal 20 something who enjoys going out meeting people,cycling and eating lots. I've recently taken up fencing and started to teach myself the violin both of which I absolutely love. Im never afraid to try new things to keep myself amused! My favourite thing to do is grab the paper on a Sunday morning, have breakfast and read at one of the many lovely cafes in Marylebone. :)
PHILOSOPHY
I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment.
