Baking, playing soccer and watching movies, doing anything adventurous
Passionately in love with baking; cakes, scones and pastries.
Being on the field brings me so much peace, I view playing soccer as living life and my team mates are the people I need to get through life, whilst my opponents are daily challenges, stresses and obstacles.
Partaking in an adventurous activity is a therapeutic way of keeping my inner child happy and full of life.
