thrifty

Hello there, Twenty six year old married, female writer from the UK here. I have a BA in Journalism and an MA in Critical Culture, I am now studying a Ph.D in Journalism at the same time as working for a large regional newspaper in the Northwest of England.

I like to crochet, sew, bake and bead. I'm really getting into photography too. Into kitsch/Cath Kidston/Japanese modern culture stuff.

I also like eco friendly, vintage or thrifty items. I try to live an eco friendly and thrifty life. Spending a lot of time in charity and thrifty shop is my major downfall.

I thrive in situations where I get to be a kick ass housewife. Cleaning pleases me.
