ABOUT ME
Hey! I've recently returned from travels around the States, it turns out I'm a walker, can't help it, transport makes it boring. I'm a happy, straight forward and easy-going person. I'm very approachable so i doubt i'll find anyone who i can't make some form of conversation with! I'm open-minded, relatively independent and can't help wanting to learn new things. I know I'm a girl but i just love talking sports, any, hit me. and if i don't know much about it i bet you i will once we've finished talking because i will definitely want to learn!I'm going to call myself a Londoner. I've been living here for over 4 years and it very much feels like home. I grew up in Brackley, a small town in the south midlands, UK, loved it but needed to get out.I am a struggling musician at heart, I play double bass and have basic skills on the guitar and piano. I love music and I love playing it and cannot wait until i have the spare time to do it again!... But the money earner is working in events and also waitressing. Travelling wont pay for itself!
PHILOSOPHY
I was in a cafe the other day and the waiter asked if i wanted a straw, i said "Why not?!", and realised i say this a lot! So simple yet the best way to live :)
I like to think I'm finally living life for me and I'm very much enjoying not having any ties apart from my family and close friends.
