Über mich
Hello! :D Here is some background info about me...
I grew up in North West London, Camden and I then lived in Leeds for undergraduate studies. After that I worked in the charity sector for about 3 years and then moved to Maastricht (the most beauutiful little city in Holland) to do my Masters. I have also spent time in Cambodia - where I lived for six months in my early twenties, working at a school teaching English.
Currently, I work as a reporting and research consultant for the UN, IOM - mainly focusing on return refugees and internally displaced people. At the moment I am working in Kabul, so, as you might expect... I won't be able to accept guests :P. I previously worked in Maastricht UNU-Merit, and I still have a lot of ties to that beautiful city :D
I consider myself very lucky in that I love my work, but at the same time I'm a strong believe that life should be balanced. Too much work and too much typing isn't healthy for my rhythms so I am a person that loves to break life up with exercise, dancing, meditation, meeting friends and (very importantly) doing random and exciting things. For example, I love love to swim in freezing cold water! Having said that, I also like to do usual things... such as have a lovely hot coffee in the sun or watch football over a few pints.
Overall, I am a warm, compassionate and kind person who loves to experience new things, meet new people. If there's anything else you want to know about me, please just drop me a message :D
