Studying at the law faculty at Université Toulouse 1 as part of the ERASMUS scheme – in other words, a funded stay in the South of France!

there’s more to me
As well as socialising with friends regularly, I fancy myself as a bit of a film buff and am always adding to my DVD collection. My other passion is food, and am slowly - but surely - teaching myself how to cook (much to my flatmates’ delight) I also love to travel – however, have yet to make it outside Europe since I have an irrational fear of flying!
