I'm 18 years old, just finished 6th form. Currently trying to find a job in my gap year before I go to University! I like taking photos, writing letters and walking. My boyfriend is trying to teach me piano - it's difficult!

I'm a vegetarian - my favorite food is pasta! Oh, and chocolate. :D

I love reading! Fantasy, Girly Fiction and Supernatural but ... well, I'll try any book and probably finish it :)
