About me

Gender Male
Industry Student
Occupation Ancient History
Introduction I'm a reformed hippie. Also halfway through a degree in ancient history at University College London, the next year of which will be on exchange in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Interests Taking a day to cook and eat a meal., Pretending I'm conversant in far more languages than I really am yet making people laugh in their native tongue with my actual two-word vocabulary., Waking up in the morning and deciding which book to devote the day to., Coffee tea and other assorted caffeinated drinks., Travelling until my feet begin to itch for a comfortable retirement. Denying unreasonable whingy feet said retirement., Leafing through old books. Guessing the publisher and year of publication of such books by their scent., Cycling for hours until that penetrating feeling of deep-rooted intense self-inflicted agonising exhaustion sets in; then sitting on the stairs and eating a banana whilst basking in the warm glow of refuelling on zero.
