Formalities aside….
But of course, this is all just the professional side of things. I’m a daughter, sister, friend, Godmother to two gorgeous little girls, and the proud aunty to seven nieces and nephews. I love all things theatre, reading, writing, spirituality and meditation. I adore travel and culture, and spent the best part of my 20’s living, working and travelling in various countries, racking up 78 countries (so far!) in the process! I am happiest in a book shop, on a plane, or at home by the sea. I strive for a life that centres on moments of connection, hygge, great conversation and contentment.
