Samsareen: The Girl

sara raouf

so..about me..i am absolutely useless writing about myself, as i never know what to say. whenever someone says, describe yourself sara, I'm like, erm, I'm just sara.

but writing is a whole other story, its the one place you can say how fantastic you are...it just makes me cringe. cause i don't think i am fantastic, i am just sara.

i suppose there could be the old basics, I've got dark hair, dark eyes, dabbled with being blonde for a while, changed that when my hair started snapping and i physically couldn't get a brush through it. but thats so boring..!!!!!

its the stuff I've done that makes me interesting. right?

i guess you wonder where the surname is from, its not exactly english, but my father is egyptian, he moved over to england to be with my mother (who, yes, is english).

I've got the BIGGEST feel for travelling i want to see the world. its been created to utter beauty that it needs to be explored, the cultures fascinate me with the fashion, traditions and beliefs.

it started when i went to visit my best friend in australia, we spent a week of the time i was there in bali. i knew i needed to see what else was out there. as time goes on i do wish to share some pictures from my times away.

in the summer of 2011 i decided i could not handle staying in england and spent my summer working out in cyprus. i had the most amazing time, and met the most amazing people. in the most cliche way, it changed my life.

before i went out, i was working a 9-5 job in a well respected company, alongside my friends, (it certainly paid for my wardrobe needs and travel expenses)

but it wasn't enough for me. i knew i wanted to be travelling with my work and learning all there was about fashion.

so with that, i quit my job and off i went to the sunny country of cyprus. it was here i made the biggest decision I've made in my 21 years if living, to do the move from essex to manchester to study art and design. i knew i was finally in the right tracks.

and that brings us to the present day.

for me next? world domination...i wish.

i want to pursue my dream of becoming a make-up artist, whilst running my own fashion line, beauty line, perfume range...well a girl can dream can't she?
