Hi! I'm Bea (she/her) a first-year Law student at Hertford. I'll be writing a food column this term, which is the excuse to talk about food that I have always dreamt of! In reality, I need no excuse, and you may spot me scribbling restaurant reviews on the back of receipts or persuading friends to take me to different college brunches. When not writing about food I am often talking about it whilst running around Oxford with the Cross Country Club.
