Reading, Baking, Music, Movies and a OG Swiftie.

I am an avid lover of all things Taylor Swift because I admire her tenacity and a true hardworker and true to herself which I think a lot of people lack when are blinded by the outside world and technology. I am a self taught baker and I turn to baking and it turns out to be a small home based business when i am free and helped during the Covid Pandemic. And music has help me heal and i believe a good set of music can improve the vibe in any environment/workplace/home. And I love movies and reading as a getaway to a world of fantasy, magic, alternate reality and the What-ifs. I also, believe in equality and gender-equal and that everyone should be respected and given equal chance like everyone else.
