A passionate, engaging writer, I am looking to start a new life and career in London after three months of travelling through Europe. As a lifelong learner, I have worked in a wide range of educational and creative fields in numerous countries over the years, giving me an adaptability and ease in new work climates. I love being challenged, and am always finding new ways to interact and engage with people, both on my projects and writing.
