My Questions From Ann Marie:
1. In your own words, who are you?
I’m an expat currently living in Stockholm, Sweden! I started designing professionally as a teenager in the fashion industry ages ago. Since then I earned a degree in Fashion, and went on to designing sunglasses, hats, men and women’s apparel, shoes, bags, homeware—you name it, I’ve probably done it! I’m also an avid traveller and have been lucky enough to travel to over 40 countries.
2. What is your goal with blogging?
I started my blog with the aim to provide the inspiration on how to look fabulous on all types of budgets to define your own style and construct the life you have always wanted.
3. In your own words, describe why laughing helps the inner soul?
Laughter is therapeutic, we need it! It’s nourishment for the mind, body and soul and is something that no bar of chocolate or glass of wine can provide!
4. Food unites all race and cultures, why
Everyone has their own tastes and preferences with food. As a travel blogger, I’ve witnessed how food can draw strangers together at a meal. It’s magical. It should be implemented to create peace everywhere!
5. What is your thought about kindness?
Ahhh! I love this question! The world needs more kindness! Sometimes the simplest, smallest deeds can create the brightest light! By doing something small every day, it all adds up by year end!
6. If we could all have one song spread around the globe, which song would you nominate?
Imagine–John Lennon. Profound and perfect.
7. What is your favourite day of the week and why?
I have no favourite day, but I’d have to say Friday after work until Sunday are the days I truly treasure!
8. If this world had no borders where would you live, and why?
There is no one place I’d live as I’d constantly be moving around everywhere, exploring. Life is too short to be in one place!
9. What is your worst fear?
I do worry a lot about the environment and how we’re wrecking the planet at an alarming rate; how there will be more plastic in the oceans than fish in the near future and how animals are suffering as a result of our greed, ignorance and carelessness. 200 years from now, archeologists will be finding nothing but our garbage for artefacts. What will our moment in history be remembered as, The Disposable Age?
10. To just take a break, what book would you recommend to escape within?
I fill my days reading a lot of news, so if I can sneak off with a novel to lose myself in, I will!
11. Describe your dream home to come to after all the struggles of life.
Anywhere safe where I can laugh and be myself and where my two cats can zing around and leave bits of fur for me to clean up after is my dream home.
