Personal Interests
I am interested in PC and web games, playing, writing and contributing to content. I like reading and watching movies - especially at the cinema with friends. I have a wide ranging taste in music and play the flute. I enjoy making chain mail jewellery and selling it at craft fairs or other social events. I am currently trying to relocate to Cambridge to benefit from new opportunities and be closer to my friends. In addition to this I have been a member of the Air Training Corps and reached the rank of 1st Class Cadet.
