About meVoracious reader since earlier than I can remember. Truly, I can't remember not being able to read. I read a wide range of literature and books are my 'comfort blanket' - I always have to have one.
Keen cook (with the weight to show for it).
Travel addict - currently seeing as much of Europe as I can before (hopefully) emigrating to New Zealand in 2009.
I have a Certificate in Humanities, Diploma in Literature, and, as of December 2008 a BA (Hons) in Humanities with Literature.
About my libraryLots of fiction but also lots of (light) history book, travel writing, cookbooks, and books bought for or part of my studies.
I had over a thousand books when I lived in London. When I moved I had a sort through and donated those I knew I would never use again to charity. I've added new books since I moved and am now sorting through them again prior to packing to emigrate.
