Hello kind krafters! Here's a little bit about me...

​My name is Rhian and I am a new Youth Ambassador for kind krafts. I am so excited to be a part of the team and to share my life with you all! I thought that a good way to start my kind krafts journey would be through introducing myself, so here we go!

Who am I?
 
I am currently in my second year at Acadia University in a Bachelor of Music program where I am focusing in Vocal Performance. I love spending my school years in the small town of Wolfville and being a part of the amazing community here. Outside of school, I practice yoga and Shotokan karate which both help to keep my mind clear and focused. I am constantly introducing myself to new vegetarian recipes and forcing my family to eat them (I will keep you all updated on my latest creations through my posts)! I am a big lover of art and you can often find me doodling, painting, or taking artsy photos!

Here are three more fun facts about me:

1. I lived in England for the first half of my life
2. I collect postcards
3. I love a good chai latte

My 2018 Goals
 
In 2018, I hope to make myself a little better every day. I have heard the phrase, “peace begins with me” and really hope to keep this in mind as I experience the new year! Continuing on from this idea, I hope to:

• Take time to reflect on what has happened during that day and to centre myself (nature walks along the dykes/in the forests, making a cup of tea and journaling, lighting a candle and just simply thinking, etc.)
• To give out more ‘warm and fuzzies’ more regularly (complimenting people more often, wishing strangers a good day, bringing friends extra homemade snacks/tea, etc.)
• Documenting what I do and how I feel more often, as well as making daily affirmations to create a good headspace every morning
• Put myself in new situations (try new hobbies/activities, attend events by myself and forcing myself to meet new people, go to concerts/lectures I wouldn’t think I might enjoy because most of the time I end up finding them really interesting)

I am so thrilled to be joining the kind krafts team and I can’t wait to learn more about so many important causes. My dream is to one day create change through the music that I am able to make, and so I feel so fortunate to be a part of a group that actively supports and shares awareness for a variety of causes through art. I also feel incredibly honoured to be able to work alongside such inspirational individuals who will continue to involve me in these new experiences.  
 
That’s all for now, friends! Thank you so much for reading :)
