A Girl From the South West Moves to SW17

House Door Lock And Keys 
This is it! After a year of working, applying for traineeships and looking for flats in London, it's time to start the journey in to Librarianship. After a stressful few weeks preparing to move, we finally got settled in a lovely flat in South West London. Although not perfect for my daily commute in to Central London, Earlsfield seems like a nice area and I'm looking forward to doing a little more exploring!
I begin my role as Graduate Trainee at the Royal College of Surgeons next week and after weeks of reading, research and anticipation, I am looking forward to learning on the job and finding my feet in such a beautiful library!

For those of you who don't know me personally, I come from a Customer Service background and have an active interest in academics, teaching and learning. I am hoping to combine these skills and interests and develop upon them further during my year as a Graduate Trainee.

I will be posting about my experiences as a trainee in London where I am well and truly out of my comfort zone! A world away from the walk able beauty of Bath, I fully expect to get lost, confused and excited during my year as a Londoner.
