CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life in the most creatively colourful way

ABOUT ME

A highly creative and colourful person I enjoy making almost anything from clothes and jewelry to food and furntiure. I work with teenagers 14 - 19 which is often not as bad as it sounds but occasionally is as bad as it sounds! I love, love, love dancing and enjoy reggae old skool hip hop and RnB.
I'm currently embarking on a research project about costume, cloth and fashion around the African Diaspora. This is more than likely going to take forever as I plan to collect information from all over the diaspora, but i can think of nothing better than travelling around the world meeting new people and making new friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Live to the best of your ability being postive and grateful everyday. Give thanks for whatever you have and you will recieve more. Treat everyone as you would like to be treated always being as considerate and thoughtful as you can.
Enjoy life cos apparently its well short!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Although its not very nice and it wasn't intentional one thing I've done in my life is fall off the edge of a cliff and land on some rocks on my back. I'd say it was amazing that i'm still here unhurt and flexible to this day. I was 6 at the time though so I guess my bones were still green.

Teach, Learn, Share

Live food, although it may not sound appetizing is one of the keys to excellent health and longevity. Get to grips with some tasty recipes and don't be afraid to experiment!
I can teach you to sew and make clothes which is an invaluable skill. I need to get a better handle on French and Spanish for my travels and for the greater enrichmnet of my life, so come mek we swap!
