About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To become fluent in French, to learn to ski and to climb a mountain!

ABOUT ME

I'm a music lover, a passionate cook, an economics enthusiast & graduate along with many other things. I enjoy travelling and exploring new places, but most importantly meeting and making new friends.

At present I am tackling a new challenge, studying towards the chartered accountancy qualification.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life, be generous and don't take things too seriously.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite directors include Paul Thomas Anderson, Richard Linklater & David Lynch. Favourite films that currently spring to mind include: Withnail & I, Into the Wild, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Inside Job and Why We Fight.

I enjoy a variety of musical persuasions but currently listen to a lot of electronic stuff, disco and 90s rock.

The last book I read was by Oliver Sacks: The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat: And Other Clinical Tales.
