How was your transition from childhood to adulthood and what are the bad and good things you remember?

What are your upcoming major events?

Matilda Cecilia: I’m going to promote my eco-friendly and organic products (body butter, candles, lip balms) at a ladies event on the first Friday of each month. I started making these during covid and gave them as gifts to friends and family.

What are your food preferences and body measurements?

Matilda Cecilia: I have a varied diet although I would say that I’m more of a vegetarian/pescatarian diet. However, I don’t eat soya products.

What expert advice would you like to give?
