About Me

I'm vegan. It doesn't define me, but it is extremely important to me.
I love life and I'd rather it was full of real highs and lows than just be constantly average. Change is good.
I try my best to be optimistic.
I try to find something beautiful in every day, rather than just living for the weekend.
I daydream a lot.
I miss my friends.
I study French and Russian, and split my time between Manchester, UK, St Petersburg, Russia and Lyon, France.
I don't know what I want to do with my life, but I hope it won't be spent in an office.
I want to couch-surf across the world and meet all kinds of people.
I love meeting new people to inspire me to learn more about anything.
I want to live in a house with a compost heap with another dreamer.
I want to live an interesting life with no regrets, just experiences.
I'd love it if you'd watch this:

I'm a little bit in love with this man:
