About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm quite the average student I guess.... I love books and music - 2 things I'd be lost without - and I like being with my friends.

The key to my heart is low-key: gatherings in kitchens at uni; cheese, wine and shishah at home; watching TV eating ice cream with my girlfriend - these are all activities I relish.

I study English at uni in Leeds, which is all good fun. I'm a member of th student TV station, LSTV; also I write for a nationwide internet student magazine - http://www.studentbeans.com/uk/beanzine.html

Travelling is probably something I've rather neglected in my life - I didn't do a gap year, which I'm not sure if I reget or not.... but I'm hoping to get a lot out of Couch Surfing.

And by a lot, I mean a bed for the night.

PHILOSOPHY

Kinda.... just enjoy stuff.
