About Me — Shabaira Junaid
“The only journey is the one within.” — Rainer Maria Rilka
Being the eldest among my siblings, I’ve always been the responsible one. I’m an introvert, and I come across as very reserved and quiet, but those who know me well would suggest otherwise.
I completed my ACCA and worked in Finance, Accounting and Auditing jobs before I chose to become a stay-at-home mother. I live with my husband and two lovely kids, a daughter who’s thirteen, and a son who’s nine years old.
I’ve always been fascinated by words and writing and wanted to write myself, but I couldn’t get myself to do it because I feared judgment. It took a great deal of courage and convincing myself, to do what I’ve dreamt of doing.
Interests and hobbies
Being an introvert, I crave solitude. I love my time alone and like to spend it reading books, listening to music, watching TV, or doing nothing. I love travelling and discovering new places.
I’m particularly good at procrastinating and using humour and sarcasm to vent my feelings of anger and frustration.
What I write about
I’ve not bound myself to any particular niche yet, as I’m still discovering myself. I like to write about life, experiences, parenting, and anything else I find interesting.
