      Hmm! What an interesting question. Also a very difficult one to answer.

      My favourite academic talent is (in my opinion) my ability to explain very complicated things to the younger generation. It’s a skill that I have learned over the years due to being a tutor for primary, secondary and university students and something I am desperate never to forget!

      My favourite “useless” talent is my ability to do three diabolos on one string. A diabolo is a cute little circus toy (google it if you are curious) which I have used and performed with since the age of 6. My grandmother bought it for me when I was 6 years old… really cute right?

      Anyway, I can set multiple diabolos on fire and juggle three of them. This is a skill I’ve been practising for over 18 years and I’m only 24!

      I hope this answers your question =P.
