About Me

Sam: Lund, Skane, Sweden; Economics, Politics, Cooking, Karaoke and Cats. Expect typos and confusion to ensue. I am a 28 year old masters student in Economic History. From Hull, lived in Glasgow, Manchester and now Lund, Sweden. I am a Labour and Fabian Society member, but my politics are kind of centrist and I focus on economics. I speak French and sometimes attempt Spanish and Swedish.
