About Me

Profile Edited by MySpace LayoutsWhat can I say about me? Fairly easy-going. Hopeless romantic, eternal optimist... I have a real hunger for learning. Just completed a degree. At the moment I'm reading a lot of French history and 19th century English novels. I am fascinated by the splendor and decadence of the French court. I also have a growing interest in European art.
