CURRENT MISSION

Looking to meet new friends from around the world!

ABOUT ME

I live in Angel, close to the trendy Upper Street and not far from Shoreditch. Highly accessible by buses and tube, Angel Tube Station is just 7mins walk away. I work full time, so can only join you for dinners or an afternoon coffee if you're around my office area on weekdays. Still exploring London, happy to show you around or explore more of London with you on weekends. :)

PHILOSOPHY

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger....make the most out of life.
In it to win it...you will have a chance, only if you try
