My Lifestyle

I avoid the use of plastic wherever I can; I have a reusable coffee cup, a waterbottle and I don't use plastic bags. I use public transport, or I always carpool.

 

My Volunteering and Community Service

I've been volunteering for years now, I started out in school as a volunteer who taught kids how to dance and I tutored them. In New York, I have worked with New York Cares, I've done projects with them that involve working with children but also cleaning up local spaces like the Public Library. One of the most valuable lessons I have learned is that building a relationship is key to succeeding in life.

 

My Charitable Wish List on Changing The Present

I love the idea of people donating instead of buying unwanted presents. It is a much more meaningful way to show your love.
