About me:

Before continuing my studies in the form of Bar school in the UK or Journalism masters in the States (I have yet to make up my mind), I've decided to take a year out to travel, learn Spanish and re-learn Chinese... and more importantly, WRITE.

Another reason?
To get the ants out of my pants!

* * *

I'm a fairly easygoing person, open-minded, outgoing (although I like personal time too), adventurous, and mostly energetic.

It's the simplest things in life I love - although in this upside-down world it sometimes seems like you have to pay inordinate amounts to get that!

I'm fired up on:

i read a lot and i love to write - but more often than not i get stuck with writer's block.

i love shooting light - more of portraits and street photographs than anything else.

i enjoy horseback riding - want to ride in deserts and along beaches and in mountain ranges!

i love frequenting cozy live music/open mic literature bars to see talent at grassroots level!
