Books, art, music, movies, and blanket forts - nothing in moderation! I currently work in arts publishing in London but am taking some time off to work at Shakespeare & Co. in Paris.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Anything by Françoise Sagan, Edith Wharton, Maya Angelou, William Blake, Anna Swir, or Margaret Atwood is automatically at the top of my list.

Movies: Everything under the pop culture sun (except gore or horror). Love 40's films (Gregory Peck, Lauren Bacall, and Humph are my favourites), classics, anything that makes me think and anything that makes me forget that I want to.
(I love The Fall, Hook, Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Lord of the Rings, Pride & Prejudice, The Mummy, Jane Austen's Book Club, The First Wives' Club, Tree of Life... TV shows - Mad Men, Modern Family, Will & Grace, Friends, Orphan Black...)

Music (Wide and Ranging): 40's (Billy, Ella, Louis, Frank, & Bing - the gang), Classical (Debussy), every decade had something wonderful to offer (from the Beatles to the Bangles), currently loving Leon Bridges, Azekel, and Madeleine Peyroux.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once got out of bed before my alarm clock went off. After I'd executed that near impossible move, I moved to a different country on my own.
