About me
I would like to think of myself as an inquisitive and passionate person. I like asking questions in order to be knowledgeable about the world around me, I appreciate the small details that allow the larger body to be managed flawlessly. I also see myself as someone who welcomes a challenge no matter what form it comes in, I never shy away from something I have not done before as it is an opportunity to learn something new. I am currently creating youtube content about my life experiences and my interests such as fashion and music, I am creating a visual blog that incorporates colour, image and music to create an aesthetically pleasing accompaniment to a theme I have chosen.
