Annie Granger

I'm Annie, I'm a 23-year-old British-Canadian, language enthusiast and environmentalist. I've studied French and Philosophy in Wales, as well as Philosophy and Translation in France. As a life-long vegetarian, I enjoy finding the most ecologically sensible way of doing things. When I'm not knitting and mending things, I'm probably dawdling around second-hand shops looking for a bargain!
