Kimberley Hunt

Hi, I am Kimberley - I am a history buff, I really enjoy reading and learning about everything that has happened in the past. I studied History at King's College London and I'm also in the process of tracing back my family tree via Ancestry's website, which can be challenging with members of the family located all over the place! But I am getting there... it's been really interesting so far. I also really enjoy attending local art events as I've always been a fan of art!
