Painting, paddle boarding and volunteering at animal shelters

  • Painting happened by accident! I started painting after watching videos, initially inspired by a desire to decorate your home. What began as a personal hobby has become a creative outlet, offering a mental release as you bring beautiful ideas to life. Now, you’re proud to share your work in a local art market, allowing others to enjoy your creations.
  • As for Paddle Boarding, I love paddle boarding on the Waterway, where the gentle rhythm of the water and the beauty of the surroundings offer a perfect escape from stress. Being outdoors refreshes you, bringing a sense of peace and grounding that you cherish.
  • After rescuing my dog in May, who was found on the street with her puppies, my heart couldn’t turn away from other animals in need. Seeing her situation made me realize just how much support rescues need. Now, I volunteer whenever I can—collecting food, spending time with the animals, and just giving them the care they deserve. It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to make a difference, even in small ways, for these animals.
