ABOUT ME
I'm really into gardening, permaculture, cycling and yoga! My boyfriend Jack and I have been together for 9 years. Jack is a computer programmer and is into cycling, running, firefighting and user experience design.
We both love eating good food, camping, meeting fun people, hiking and swimming in lakes and rivers on warm summer days.
