Sara Cairney is originally from New Zealand but moved to London a year ago for an adventure. She had a good job in New Zealand but felt she needed to do something new and different and so moved to London. She says it has been the most extreme year of her life as she left a good job to move to London in the middle of the recession. Also had some health problems that prevented her from being able to work for a few months. Having said that she says she has met the love of her life and her and her partners are making plans to live in other countries. She has landed a new job in TV. On the plinth she will be throwing out notes about herself to people who she spots in the Square. She is turning the tables on them a little bit and will be looking through binoculars and trying to attract the attention of the people in the Square.
