About Me



Myspace Editor
Pimp MySpace

I'm a bit of a mongrel really. I'm part Greek, Italian and English. I guess that explains my obsession with languages. It's one of my biggest ambitions to be fluent in lots of different ones. I was born in East Anglia but have lived in Cheshire since I was 2. I'm now at Leeds uni though, studying Philosophy and Psychology, joint honours. Not entirely sure where I'll end up after that.
