Profile

Biography

Interests / Hobbies

My interests are dogs (my family has 2)

I love most animals and love to work with them. I used to ride and I did help out every Saturday at that stables.

I have my own gerbil (caramel) I spend lots of time with her, getting her out of her cage and letting her play.

I am very interested in sea mammals, I want to be a marine biologist when I finish university and I want to specialise in sharks, whales, dolphins.

My hobbies are reading, badminton, drawing, walking my family dogs, spending time with my gerbil and my xbox.

Plans for the future

I plan to become a marine biologist when finishing university.
