About Me

I love music, football and new adventures. I was an English and French teacher for 8 years and now I'm working hard on my master's as well as an eLearning startup. I'm really easy to get along with and I love meeting new people. Looking forward to get to know you :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Currently Godspeed you! Black Emperor, Typhoon, Brand New, Radiohead and The National.

Movies - Mulholland Drive, Drive, Badlands, all the stuff that looks good

Books - currently reading self-improvement mostly but I've always got time for the old classics and Donna Tartt

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled from Leeds to Jura to see Ardfin Boathouse where the KLF burned a million quid

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot of stuff. A small proportion of it is useful.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook (kind of) and I can teach French or guitar or both or neither. I can do lots of things actually - just ask :)
