Helena is a Lincoln first year PPEist. Slightly older than most freshers, she spent last year in Thailand where she aquired a taste for beach volleyball. Within a month she found herself representing the village in which she teaching English in regional competitions. Helena’s partner in Thailand, Neema Shah, was also set to take up a place at Oxford this year but became so caught up in the sport that she now sprays perfume for a living in between training sessions in California. This summer Helena intends to travel to compete with Neema in the Bud Light Six Pack Open in July. Although she admits that her ability will have suffered from three terms at Oxford, she is at least looking forward to a decent tan.
