A FRANTIC search has been launched for an Australian backpacker who vanished from a London hostel two weeks ago.
Jessica Parkinson, 29, has not been seen since December 8 with her family now desperate to hear from her.
Jessica failed to turn up to her shift at barbecue restaurant Texas Joes – where she had worked for the past year.
When managers texted to ask where she was, she claimed to have got her start time wrong – and promised to be 'right there' by 5pm.
She was reported missing by her father on December 11 after not making contact with relatives in Queensland.
Anyone with information regarding Jess' whereabouts are urged to get in touch with the Met Police.
A spokesperson for the force said: “Police are currently investigating the whereabouts of Jessica Parkinson, 29 after she was last seen on Sunday, 08 December in Bermondsey.
“Anyone who may have seen Jessica is encouraged to contact police quoting reference number, 01/1196494/24.”
