I am a Junior Research Writer at Trend Hunter, a lover of learning, eating and making room for activities. I recently graduated from the University of Guelph and while surprising to some I was, in fact, not in 'farming'. I have a background in political science and psychology and enjoy watching documentaries and reading non-fiction - the real world has so many more twists.
