CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I've been told that the three words to sum me up would be - curious, ironic, romantic.I'm a bit of a diletante/jack of all trades, love geniune people, love to UK share stuff/experiences and probably think a damn sight too much. I have a tendency to get lost in the nooks and crannies of language and occasionally write about my linguistic wandering on my blog http://scaffolding babel.blogspot.com.
