As written by her..
" I can't wait to move to London and immerse myself in a creative, bold environment. I've always been creative, with art, fashion and theatre. So, I will mostly be exploring London and taking advantage of all that it has to offer".
"I like my privacy and confidentiality is very important around my care. I like music of all kinds, arts and crafts, will most likely have a new project or hobby going. I Love Lego, painting and designing. I love doing my nails. Will do yours too if you want! But sometimes I like to just chill and watch a film or series. So will always be grateful for recommendations."
