DXB Events

Will give Grumpy Cat a run for her money [The fact that we’re both women is in no way confirming to any stereotype]. Most likely to die first in The Hunger Games. But the cool part about me dying first is that I would have planned my own death, and maybe even yours. Occasionally raps in Spanish- La arana discoteca. Lives for coffee, good music, Doctor Who and Sherlock.
