- Where are you from?
I was born and raised in Nottingham, England; but I’ve also lived many years in Alcorcón, south of Madrid.
- Do you have any hobbies?
I have been a dancer for most of my life, but now I’m focused on circus aerial arts (you can catch me hanging from a trapeze or some fabric any time!). I also did rugby in my university years, which was very fun and different for me.
- What do you like about living in Pamplona?
Definitely the nature that surrounds the city as well as the vibrant life of the old town. I also love its people and am currently learning Basque!
- What do you like doing in your free time?
In my free time I enjoy reading and drawing, but mostly, I like to relax and unwind by knitting, listening to music or watching a good movie.
- What’s your favourite music?
I love all kinds of music, but I always find myself going back to 60’s music like The Supremes or The Beatles; icons like Janis Joplin or Lou Reed; and contemporary pop divas such as Chappel Roan or Charli XCX.
- What was your favourite film when you were a kid?
My favourite film was Edward Scissorhands (and basically any Tim Burton movie)
- What’s your favourite quote?
“No need to hurry, no need to sparkle, no need to be anybody but oneself.” A Room of One’s Own, Virginia Woolf
