Travelling- this year I've been to Mexico, France, Switzerland and South Africa, spending time with friends, reading, watching French films, learning Spanish, shopping, watching Neighbours, drinking cider (I know I'm cool), learning the capitals of the American states (North Dakota anyone?), sunbathing (when not possible applying fake tan), swimming in the sea, eating Dairy Milk Cream Egg bars, being an internet geek, reading trashy books, going to Primark, have 2 hour baths, planning my next (bizarre) trip... lots of things! Also listening to French and Spanish pop - MC Solaar, Celine Dion, La Quinta Estacion etc in particular...
Jon Snow (in fact I already have, he hugged me twice...), Celine Dion (I love her), other strange (but hopefully attractive) people...
