Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm on a mission to see and learn as much about the world as possible, next mission - taking the train from Helsinki to Beijing
ABOUT ME
I'm studied English Literature at University College, London. Now I work in international Development.
I love to spend my time at the theatre, and I go as often as I can. When I'm not at the theatre, I love to cook, make cocktails, or go out to restaurants and pubs.
I'm friendly, intelligent and creative - and I love good conversation.
