My name is Thomas Tutton. I'm 23 years old and English, but I was born in Paris and grew up near Marseille. I did my undergraduate degree in History and Politics at the University of Oxford, where I wrote my Bachelor's thesis on Anglo-French relations in the 1840s. My main areas of focus have previously been the history of China and the Middle East, but I'm looking forward to learning more about the global connections and exchanges that underpin the modern world.
