Bouldering, Football, Reading, Curation, Art, Collecting, Fashion, Cooking

Bouldering: I was first introduced to the world of bouldering in 2019. It is something I enjoy doing as it involves practical knowledge, physical activity, connecting with other and being present within the moment. 

Football: I've been playing football since I was about 10 years old and fell in love with the sport due to it's involvement with camaraderie, the use of cardio and directional movements as well as the fast paced nature of the game. 

Reading: I have always loved reading due to it's ability to increase one's knowledge, whilst also transporting you to different dimensions and places through imagery and descriptive writing. 

Fashion: Fashion is something I dabble in, as a means for me to express myself and being within a community. Whether it's going through archives to find new pieces and mixing and matching pieces you already have, it's a thrill which nothing else can compare to. 

Collecting: I am someone who collects an array of things including: books, vinyl records, vintage model cars, watches, clothes, music memorabilia, fashion and culture mags, figurines and collectibles, art as well as musical instruments. 

Cooking: Cooking is an activity I do which brings me into a flow state. Once I put a little music on it's just me and the dish I'm trying to cook.
