Bolton, UK.

Favourite movie

When I was a student, working at a cinema, I had 'Mrs. Henderson Presents' on my name badge but I think it could be Dogville now!

Favourite quote

"Do not imagine that art can provide gentle uplift and self-confidence. Art is not a brassiere. At least not in the English sense but do not forget that 'brassiere' is French for life jacket." - Julian Barnes (Flaubert's Parrot)

Interests and hobbies

My interests are difficult to define because they tend to change. I do love experiencing other cultures and engaging with the Arts, though.

One thing I want to do before I die

Become much fitter!

Favourite book

In philosophy, I rather enjoy anything by Slavoj Zizek. I would love to read Proust one day!

The most amazing moment in my life so far

Climbing up a water-fall in Jamaica, possibly.
