ABOUT ME

I'm Kate, a 22 year old from Aberdeen in Scotland.

I recently lived in Belgium, teaching English in a language school. Here, I started trying to improve my French, which I'm continuing with by doing an intensive course in Paris.

I love to be around people, with good food, a good drink and good music. I am equally happy sitting chatting with a coffee or a glass of wine (or 5...), or dancing in a club until 6am! I love to experience a new place just by walking around. I like going to museums and art galleries, my favourite being the Kelvingrove (in Glasgow, Scotland) and the FotoMuseum (in Antwerp, Belgium). I've done quite a bit of travelling in the last year (as much as my bank balance will allow!) Holidaying in Thailand, spending 3 months in Belgium/Luxembourg, visiting Bavaria, and France!
