ABOUT ME

A 5 ft 2 girl who enjoys life to its fullest. Living and working in London and loving all that this wondrous city has to offer. I'm a frequent visitor of places, but my heart, always, belongs to London. Heading to Japan and South Korea in April - any tips / advice would be much appreciated.
