Hobbies

Music: 

I am an aspiring musician (singer), which means I love listening to & discovering various genres of music, but I mainly listen to goth, punk, new wave & classic rock.  


Film: 

Watching films is my way of relaxing & rewarding myself after a long day. I love comedies, thrillers, horror & drama films (if they intertwine, even better!) I have too many favourite films to count. 

 

Museums:

My mum used to work in museums throughout my childhood, so she exposed me to a variety of visual art & artists. Visiting a museum/ art gallery will never fail to make my day & will always be a go to idea for any vacation/road trip. 


Fashion & Makeup:

Dressing up and putting my face on makes me feel ready to seize the day. I adore referencing decades & trends that I love into my own style as I believe that my style is a direct reflection of who I am.
