New month...new hair, well at least for me anyways!
Happy new month y'all! 🤭
It's a new month and we are in GEMINI season! ♊ 😈 Happy birthday to all my JUNE Geminis!
If you have been keeping up with me on socials, you would have seen I've been a digital menace since May 21. To be fair sha, I'm typically a menace anyways - but this one is justified!
I'm going to make this banter short and sweet as I'm racing against the clock with my birthday minutes away.
June is here and you're welcome! And I may be a tad bias by saying this...but it's the best month of the year *insert Kanye West meme*.
Whether you're looking for art, wellness, networking, nightlife or simply an excuse to leave the house, here are 7 Things you can do in Freetown this month 😊:
1.) Shopping Saturday 🛍️
Are you looking to shop for a friend, loved one, yourself or me... 😏?

3.) Between Hills and Tides Exhibition 📷
"A picture is worth a thousand words" is often said, but the question remains, are we willing to truly support the arts behind those words?
