Interests
I love travelling, I inter-railed round Europe and I went volunteering in India in my gap year.
I backpacked and busked my way around the USA in the summer of 2015.
I love Swimming in the sea, surfing where I live, running, yoga. I am a student so partying is also top of my list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I volunteered in India with IDEX for a month during my Gap Year. I taught English and Maths in a tiny shack on the beach which was their primary school to 2-10 year old kids. I taught English to a group called 'Drop Out Girls' who were 13 and had dropped out of school but wanted to continue learning English. I taught English and Computer Skills to a group called 'Women's Empowerment' for women aged 20 and above, who wanted to create a C.V and be able to apply for a job instead of automatically becoming a housewife.
