ABOUT ME

I'm interested in the environment, literature and art and how it differs, fantastically, all over the world. I'm currently studying for an MLitt in St Andrews and hope to go on to study a PhD. I feel very guilty that I cant speak any other languages but I'm trying to teach myself Spanish to make myself feel a little better about that!..

Interests

Movies (anything but horror), music, books, travelling as much as possible without spending too much! boycotting plastic; thinking green, swimming, hiking, anthropology, leading poetry workshops.
