About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get a degree whilst having as much fun as is possible

ABOUT ME

A little unsure about this whole process but heard many glowing reviews from people I met whilst Interrailing and decided to give it a look. I'm an English Language student at the University of Birmingham, a guitarist, performance poet, playwright and student journalist. I'd like to think of myself as effusive and open. I love meeting new people and getting to know other cultures and ways of life and hope CS gives me a chance to do that

PHILOSOPHY

Not certain I've got one. "We are all going to die eventually" I suppose...
