CURRENT MISSION

Consciously create and live and love The Story :-)

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in London, spending 23 years of my life in the ever-changing East End. I did my degree at UCL, studying Urban Planning, and in my second year, went to live in America (Philadelphia) for 6 months on a study exchange.

I've also spent a year in Poland, volunteering on an organic farm. It was an eye/heart-opening experience! On my return I studied organic farming in England for a while. I currently teach English (online) and am looking for a full-time job in Urban Planning.

PHILOSOPHY

So far, the following quote captures it perfectly:

"Experience is the teacher of all things."

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time in 2010 and it was an utterly breathtaking landscape that I will have forever etched in my memory. Amazing.
