...See more Good Sunday Morning! I have to say, the last week was quite chaotic, at least for me. My two courses are coming towards their end and my teachers are really rushing now. But I'm quite happy that I have this weekend to catch up. Enough about me, here are the daily check-in questions: 1. How have you been? 2. What's your favourite colour? Why? 3. If given the chance to go anywhere in the world, which country/city would you like to visit? Why? I hope you guys have a great weekend. Please know, that if you need help, we are here. You are not alone and you matter! Take care! <3

Feedback & Reviews
She looks very passionate about her customers.
She listens very patiently, and replies with thoughtful words. She speaks most of all from experience, and that is truly relieving. She is respectful too, and understanding. I am glad to have met her. Thank you.
Very understanding, perhaps because she has experienced the same things as me. She writes messages of good lengths, and I can see she takes the adequate time and consideration to care. Thank you very much!
literally amazing
This was a really nice chat, it helped me out.
Really sweet great listener,........
She was very understanding, and let me vent all my problems that were on my mind at the moment. She asked me all the right questions, and gave me the right words of wisdom. This is my first time talking to someone on this site, and I have to say that she didn't do the recommendations justice because that's how amazing of a listener she was. I really have no words to describe how great of a review she should receive, which is probably why I'm just rambling now, so I leave it at this: Thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing and reminding me that I AM strong and powerful because I haven't given up through all of this and that I really am NOT alone and there ARE really people out there who understand what I'm going through. Thank you so much!
