Born and raised in mid Wales, UK, I was surrounded by rural landscape that inspired me and fuelled my imagination as a child. From a young age I began writing creatively, both poetry and prose. I studied at Aberystwyth University, graduating in 2013 with a BA Joint Honours in English and Creative Writing. This led me to teaching English in Thailand, which gave me a thirst for travel. I have since travelled across most of Europe, as well as parts of Asia and America. My favourite travel experiences have been in Asia, specifically hiking through Northern Thailand and staying with the Lisu hill tribe people. Exploring new landscapes and cultures inspires and motivates me, and I cannot wait to see more of the world.
