Interests

Yoga
My favourite class is hot vinyasa flow. I'm always pushing myself to try something new!

Volunteering
In the past I have taught children English in villages in China, built houses in Cambodia, took care of baby orphans in Shanghai and volunteered at hospitals in Taiwan. My greatest moments of achievement are when I know I've made a difference in people's lives.

Eating
I love trying out new restaurants in London, from brunch to desserts. I also love baking and trying out new recipes!
