I’m a twenty year old student studying English Literature at York St John University. Originally from Bradford, I moved to York to study after falling for the city at around the age of sixteen. I’m a keen reader, writer, theatre go-er, occasional blogger, photographer (ish), observer and have a lot of time for music and food.
