About Jemma Armstrong
- About Me
- I love to travel, and like to do unusual things while I'm at it! I've trekked for Charity in China and Kenya, been to the Dalai Llama's residence (didn't see him though sadly!) and scuba dived in the Red Sea.
- Occupation
- Work on the projects in the City of London to address domestic violence and ASB amongst other things.
- Likes
- Chocolate, pizza, travel, sunshine
- Dislikes
- Shellfish (although I'll eat anything when I have to), tardiness, people standing around looking at each other when a volunteer is called for, credit card bills!
- Why I Joined
- This idea really appeals to me - I like to travel in a way that isn't going to stay in some plush resort.
- Hobbies
- Salsa dancing when I can find time to go to a class, scuba diving when I can afford to!
- Books I Love
- Shantaram, anything by Chuck Palahniuk, ditto David Mitchell, Tom Robbins and Salman Rushdie, The Book Thief.
- Music I Love
- Kate Bush, Korn, Fall Out Boy, Newton Faulkner, even a bit of Britney Spears. It really depends on my mood!!
- Films I Love
- Rules of Attraction, Love Story, Blade, Labyrinth, 28 Days Later
- Party Trick
- I can salsa dance, although that's not much of a trick.
- Why Me?
- Because I said so.
- Tribal Skills
- Salsa dancing! Baking, TEFL qualification, DIY, lateral thinking, willingness to give most things a go.
- My Favourite Quote
- You have to accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
