I am also very interested in art and writing, such as poetry and short stories. I like to keep fit and am interested in working out using all types of equipment. I enjoy growing my own wheatgrass, lentils and all sorts of other very nutritious sprouts that have a significant impact on the body, from inside out. I enjoy cake and chocolate, going on long treks and bike riding with my family and our favourite places are Box Hill and Richmond Park. We also love to just get in the car and drive to London Town to see all of the hustle and bustle. I also enjoy sewing.
