Here are my answers to his questions:

  1. What inspired you to start blogging? I wanted to share my work with others and connect with a community of creative people:)
  2. What’s your idea of a perfect first date? Oh gosh, let’s see. I would love to get lunch and go for a walk in the park. Maybe go to an art gallery so we have interesting things to talk about.
  3. If you could live anywhere where would it be? Right now I would say California. But the world is a big place! There’s so many exciting and beautiful places. I’d like to live somewhere with good nature spots, a variety of restaurants, museums, but also a place that is affordable.
  4. Nightowl or Day hawk? I love the night. It’s quiet and you have the beauty of the moon and the stars. However, I also love sleep and tend to wake up early. I think I’m a Night owl who acts like a Day Hawk.
  5. When you were younger what did you want to be when you grew up? A pastry chef or a pediatrician.
  6. Do you prefer long or short hair? (on yourself and on your love interest?) I prefer long hair for me, but that’s mostly because my hair is curly and already looks shorter than it is, plus is wouldn’t grow back that fast if I cut it. On a love interest, whatever they’re happiest with:) Girl or guy, whatever makes them feel like themselves.
  7. What’s your favourite Summer Holiday memory? Any time spent with my family. Also just nice, hot days in nature or by the ocean.
  8. What’s the movie you’ve watched the most? Ugh, so many lol. Pirates of the Carribean, Beauty and the Beast, V for Vendetta, Sweeny Todd, Rent, The Devil Wears Prada. Then you have holiday classics, like Home Alone (the second one is my fave).
  9. What’s your guilty pleasure food? Chocolate, hands down. I also love french fries and fried food in general.
  10. Jedi or Sith? Do you consider yourself a paragon of light or a renegade in the dark? Jedi and light for sure. (I could turn any time though. So watch out haha).
  11. What is your biggest pet peeve (the answer better not be me!) It is you! Lol. Nah, my biggest pet peeve is people not being sensitive of my feelings or personal space. Also small talk. I hate that.
