And so it began. What you may ask? Writing. Writing began. It all started when I decided to open a public Instagram account and share my passion for art, history, culture and travelling with fellow like-minded people and why not just say it, the world! I actually did not know that I had it in me. I really was worried…

I loved reading when I was younger. The excitement of going to the school library or getting assigned a new book to review in my reading journal was the best!

For me it’s a nostalgic trip down memory lane, and for Arlo he’s discovering new worlds for the very first time. I’m going to…

But I kind of wanted to elaborate a little bit on it about what it's like to be a female footy fan in this modern day. *In David Attenborough's voice* It's August 2006, there's a 13 year old girl sat in her natural habitat,…
Many things contribute to shaping our personalities, interests, and the people we become. Most commonly, this comes from our friends, family, and culture. But something that has always interested me is how much of an impact those we have never met can imprint on our lives. Those who speak to our souls through their art, wisdom, beliefs, and style.
