I’m Toni and I’m 20 years young; in my second year of studying English Language and Linguistics at York St John University. I’ve not lived in York for long but what I have seen of the city I love… I enjoy the diversity it seems to have in everything (along with all the brilliant bars which are so much different to the ones at home) If not spending time with the people I love, I am either working, reading, listening to music or enjoying a glass of rose or two and a nice meal out somewhere. I’m fun loving and hard-working and love people with a good sense of humour.
