"But I also can't pretend that there's not a small part of me that enjoys being known. ...I spent so long feeling like no one. Nothing. When I first came to London, I had nothing. I slept rough most nights. The people who spat at me, literally stepped over me or shouted insults- They have to look at me now. I'm not invisible, I'm not something to be sniffed at or looked down on. ...There's something very satisfying about that."
