Interests: I've been using social media for a bit over two years, and it has completely changed my life. Not only have I shared my thoughts and stories, but I also met my fiancé through it! We first met in February 2019 and have since traveled the world and have currently been to 41 countries! We are excited to build our careers as influencers, travelers, bloggers, and YouTubers. I'm also thrilled to be part of this learning community and can't wait to share my experiences and passion for English to help others grow!

I am a published author with a strong following on Instagram. My book, "Out of the Shadows," is a collection of freestyle creative poetry. It's an autobiographical journey of a boy who believed in love and a man who faced his darkest moments during heartbreak. The book spans over 15 years of my personal thoughts, with 287 pages across 7 chapters, taking you from 'darkness to light.' My goal is to inspire, support, and encourage others.

A little more about me: I grew up in a tough part of London until I found my career in retail. I spent a decade in management and more recently ran a reclamation and antiques business for 3 years.

I love history, traveling, long walks, and spontaneous road trips (I love driving). I'm also passionate about politics, enjoy a good debate, and love philosophical discussions or learning new things. I'm fascinated by space and the universe too, and I also really enjoy talking about aliens, myths and legends!

Thank you so much for reading. I'm excited to start this journey with you and hope to make a positive difference!
