About Me

I am a very joyful person(just like my name!). I'm very outgoing, I love to meet new people, and make new friends. I love discovering new cultures, new places, new food, new everything! I love to travel, there are still so many places I haven't been!!

I am currently travelling in Morocco, working remotely, trying out the life of a digital nomad 🙂

*Note: I don't stay with or meet up with people with no references due to security measure. Better safe than sorry! So if you don't have any references or new to CS, please don't send me a message🙏 I am currently swamped with hunderds of messages... Apologies if you didn't receive a reponse from me...and thank you for your understanding 🙌
