Victoria lives in a squat in London. She comes from Glasgow. At first she found London big and unfriendly, but now she likes it, because there are many gigs and political actions there. She moved into the squat two years ago. She lives there with three women and five men. They are all vegetarian or vegan. She sometimes helps to organize concerts at the nearby social centre. She has a girlfriend, Rebecca, who lives in another squat around the corner. She came to London, because she didn't like her life in Glasgow. She has met many people since she came to London. She doesn't work, because she doesn't support the capitalist system. The people in the squat get food by dumpster diving or shoplifting in supermarkets. Victoria doesn't like stealing from shops, because she gets very nervous, but she has never been caught. *I like living without much money. Money doesn't make you happy. You only want more and more of it. People are more important. I won't pay rent, because nobody should have to pay for the right to live," she says. "I like working, but only for the good of all, and not to make some fat cat even richer. |
