ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly, sociable person who is interested in travelling to different places and learning and talking about the world we all live in, how it all works and how we could make it better!

I'm from England originally and moved to Malmö, Sweden in Sept 2013 to volunteer and try new things to discover what I want to do and where I want to be! I volunteer at a cultural/political centre in Malmö as part of the European Voluntary Service.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what makes you happy and work towards a happy life
Things will work themselves out and become clearer in time
Be kind

Interests

In no particular order (it's difficult enough listing interests let alone rating them!):
Talking and discussions about about loads of different things
Trying and cooking new food and baking cakes
Feminism, politics and sociology
Going to talks about, reading books, writing and discussing with people about how we can make the world a better place.
The outdoors- hiking and camping
Swimming and the beach
Watching foreign films, comedy and documentaries
Reading
I like going out to bars and sometimes clubs and chatting and dancing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love fiction books that tell me more about a time or place, e.g. Victoria Hislop and Carlos Ruiz Zafon. And books that make you think differently, like The Five People you Meet in Heaven and Naomi Wolf's The Beauty Myth.
I like mainstream movies but also foreign cinema and documentaries.
I like music but not enough to name certain bands, more as a 'ooh, that's a nice song' or a soundtrack to a good night out.
