Rachel Bull

Rachel Bull has written 17 posts for The London Word

Being ensconced in the world of business writing for the majority of her working week, Rachel revels in opportunities for non-corporate fun and is very easily distracted. Despite her love of the capital, she can often be found writing about the likes of dairy farming and rural village life, and is adept at growing tomatoes and baking banana muffins. She is a fiercely loyal Northerner and appreciates all things with a Yorkshire provenance. She also loves a good fancy dress party and all varieties of red wine.
