Dominic Baliszewski
Dangerous, country-discovering cage fighter is how people often describe…dangerous, country discovering cage fighters. I, however, am more your ‘why doesn’t this place have chilled Champagne’ kinda guy – usually when I’m celebrating or, you know, it’s the weekend. Love to travel, at least two new countries each year, a big hotel fan – listen up for top tips for free upgrades. Used to carry a spoon around with me at all times just in case I felt the need to mainline a whole tub of Ben and Jerry (good times). Prospective inventor of the champagne tap, patent not pending…hint hint! Professional hater of GWR (do they practice being awful?), non-stereotypical Audi driver and least Polish Polish person you’ll ever meet. Cheltenham / London.
My secret super-skill…writing distinctly average, and slightly desperate, descriptions about myself online. And looking like a Disney Prince… (Vix definitely did not add this line after Dominic published the post, nope.)
Vix Leyton
Welsh would-be world traveler, embarrassing music appreciator, high-school orchestra calibre clarinet player, and the type of person who talks to others on the tube. Avid reader – trashy novels, Booker prize winners, and any curiosity uncovered on Twitter. Board game strategist and ice hockey supporter. Creative, if not always successful, experimental chef (ably assisted by www.cookingonabootstap.com and Hello Fresh). Digital enthusiast, Obscure fact collector, and lover of underused words like incongruous. Consumer Champion to family, friends and Twitter followers. As a day job, she is a motormouth spokesperson in e-commerce, retail and personal finance and also a regular contributor to Standard Issue, the amazing kick ass podcast and magazine for women started by Sarah Millican. So you can occasionally find her there as well, and see some of her writing from there behind the clicky link.
Vix lives in East London so takes a lot of photos of her food and has long since lost sight of whether or not a man riding a penny farthing to work is normal, a hallucination or just more hipster nonsense. You can tweet her at @PRVix
