About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorA couple of years ago my New Year's Resolution was to take opportunities. Since then I've met so many wonderful people and had adventures I wouldn't change for the world. Some of my best friends in the world I only met through chance encounters. I now split my time between Cambridge and London which actually means I spend more time on the train than anywhere else. I don't mind though, trains are nice.
