Nadia Mikail is a full-time houseplant owner and part-time investigative journalist of what London's pigeons are planning when they flock together like that.

Nadia is from Sarawak in Malaysia, where the air is always sweeter, the food is always tastier, and the pigeons are considerably less bold. She is currently studying law in London.
