Stratford is an up and coming area which is changing everyday since the London Olympics in 2012. It has the biggest shopping mall in Europe which is only a 15 min walk away. The Olympic park is partially open and offers one of the biggest green spaces in London. There are numerous pubs in the Stratford centre, in particular is 'King Edward VII' which is just around the corner from my apartment and offers great food. There's also a nice cafe on my street called "Sawmill" which do nice cakes.
I'm a laid back Kiwi and been living in London since 1999. I love London and all that it has to offer. I also love travelling and having Europe on my doorstep is pretty amazing. I'd say Italy is up there as my favourite place to visit, in particular Florence. You can't beat the food there as well as the art.

I work in the city during the week and try to hit the gym after work as much as possible. I also like going to the cinema and meeting up with friends for dinner/drinks as well as looking around markets (mainly for the food!). And on the subject of food - I love cooking. Currently going through a Nigel Slater recipe book which has been very satisfying.

I'm quite easy going and interested in different cultures and backgrounds. I have a rather unique background myself being Chinese and born in New Zealand but having British citizenship. My accent is still essentially Kiwi though. In terms of other languages, I can understand about 30% of Cantonese but don't speak it unfortunately. And when I do attempt to speak it, people understand about 2% of what I'm saying!
