About Me

I am from New Zealand but have been living in London for the past year.
I took a year out of my mastors of Architecture so that i could expose myself to more and experience first hand the dynamics, variety and differences Europes big cities and quite havens!
I love witnessing accidental encounters and moments of exchange between people lving in comunity with each other. That is what i have been for the past year pritty much as well as working in HORRIBLE reception jobs where i just want to shoot myself sometimes!
I also adore adventure! Especially when it includes going really fast or an element of risk. I love long walk, drives or cycles while admiring my environment warp and completely change around me. I am a big fan of variety, whether it is subtle or odvious.
I love spiral staircases and seeing clever designs that work really well with their envirnment.
