Oscar is a digital nomad who was born in the UK. Most recently he’s spent over a year and a half travelling through southeast Asia and Australia. He has a master’s degree in English literature and enjoys writing fiction in his spare time. As a freelancer he’s worked in a variety of roles, including education and essay marking, and writing articles, blogs and book reviews. He’s always had a soft spot for animals, in particular birds and cats both big and small.
