Woman. Immigrant. Advocate.
Thank you to everyone who asked me to post the list of important topics for the other subjects. My apologies it's taken so long - I haven't had much time to sit and sift through my notes. I would love to share all my notes, I just need some time to organise them because I [...]
Someone sent me a message on Instagram recently, reminding me that I had said in my last post (ages ago) that I would share my notes. I completely forgot about that (mea culpa). I looked back on my notes and realised they're quite lengthy. I'm not sure if you really want to read and memorise [...]

Like everyone else, my year was pretty wild. After going through this review process though, I realised that my 2020 wasn’t actually terrible. Looking at the big picture view of my year, it seemed pretty bleak — I’ve tried (and failed) to look for work in a new country in the middle of a pandemic. [...]
