After graduating with a degree in English Literature, working in bookshops and teaching in China, Kathleen moved home and like a million graduates before her she soon realised an escape plan was desperately needed. So she took a journalism course, got a job and moved to the city where all your dreams come true. Admittedly Kathleen’s dreams mostly involve sampling new takeaways and sitting in the park with a beer and the paper – but somehow that’s just cooler in London.
