    An interesting fact about yourself

    I have a vac scheme coming up and grad rec have asked us to provide an interesting fact about ourselves by email. I know this sounds really stupid but I don’t know what to say! Everything I think of sounds super cheesy or dull. What do you think would be good examples? Thanks in advance!
