I’ve got a long list of places I’d like to see… but South Africa is definitely at the top of the list and I’d love to go on a Safari

What’s your favourite book or book series, and what do you love about it?

The subtle art of not giving a f*** – it was lockdown so thought I’d try something new. OR Maybe Baby by Kate Lawler.

Shackles, Praise you by Mary Mary – it’s my go-to in the gym or a good old classic, Purple Rain by Prince.

Are you a morning person or a night owl? What’s your ideal time of day?

A night owl for sure, but more so because I can never give in and go to bed, I have huge FOMO.

If you had a magical power, what would it be and how would you use it?

I’d time travel and spend one last day with my nanna & grandad.

I love anything Italian! Or a noodle pad thai.

If you could be a character in any movie, who would you choose and why?

Naomi is played by Margot Robbie in the Wolf of Wall street. It’s one of the best films ever!

Are you a dog person, a cat person, or something else entirely?

Definitely a dog person, I’ve grown up with them from being little and have a black lab call Ebby who’s my shadow.

I took a bath outside surrounded by a family of lions.

If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be?

This needs some thought… but I’d wake up overlooking water.

I’m a little bit of an old soul and I like a bit of all sorts but I’m a 90’s child.

If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only bring three items, what would they be?
