“Before COVID-19 if I needed to blow off steam, I would play a shooting game. My favourite weapon on Destiny 2 is any pulse rifle. I define adventure as doing something that is a little outside your box. An example: going to Off Road Fury with my friend Carolyn. We drove go-karts through cane fields in St. Philip. I was surprised that I enjoyed it.
I see myself as an introvert. In 2019, my favourite liming spot was my bedroom. My TV was there, my phone, my laptop. If I wanted to read a book, a book was there. If I wanted to draw, my drawing pad was there. Before COVID-19, I was working in A&E. I didn’t have a car yet, so I’d catch the bus and then walk through town to the hospital.
