Overview
About Me
Hey! I'm a 21yo student, studying computer science, but hopefully moving into AI/neuroscience. I like music festivals, pub quizzes, bad dancing, and savoury food.
I've done quite a bit of travelling around Europe, but now I'm heading a bit further afield. I'll be in Iceland and the north-east US for 3 weeks in January/February 2017. Fully prepared to be trapped in a blizzard.
I'm vegan, but don't worry, I only get into debates about it when I'm drunk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
A couple of years ago, I managed to get on University Challenge, a TV quiz show in the UK. Did awfully, wore a shit jumper, was made fun of on Twitter, but got some good profile pictures. Definitely worth it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'll fix your computer and teach you how to make the best tofu scramble ever. I've been doing choral music for years, so I could totally give you a singing lesson or just jam with you if you're a musician.
Always looking to learn new languages, but I can't guarantee I'll be any good (although I have been told that my Polish accent is 10/10)
Countries I’ve Visited
