About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn French/become French

ABOUT ME

I am currently avoiding responsibility and a career by living in Paris, working as an au pair. When I have wasted enough time enjoying myself in Europe I may return to England and attempt a career in illustration.

I endeavor to climb as many hills as possible, swim in as many oceans as possible. Meet as many people as possible, travel to as many different places as possible.....

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is just relationships, the rest is just details."

Interests

Traveling and photographing my travels... In fact, photographing everything I do with my trusty old Praktika
Painting and drawing. Cooking, baking.. My vegetable patch. Small dogs. Knitting. Writing.

Discussing Rudolf Steiner at great length !
