I had many nicknames growing up as a child. To some, I was mixed raced to others I was either one or the other but most simply saw me as confusing. Born and raised in England, brought up half Polish half Indian and never really one exact thing.

‘Coconut’ was a nickname that was given to me by an aunt I hold close to my heart. Brown on the outside, white on the inside. I think coconut suits me – I am round like one, I am hairy like one, I present a hard outer shell for protection and an inside full of…well…confusion.

This blog is intended for venting and explaining myself and my view of the world, through those 3 little coconut holes I have. You see, being brought up by two very opposing cultures never use to be the norm and I don’t think us Coconuts have enough people to look up to and turn to for guidance. This is something I strive to be. At the ripe age of 20, in University and living 4 hours away from my hometown I have some experience in finding my way around life.

I want to give everyone who passes past my blog the opportunity to ask me questions and find out just a little bit more about me. I wont bore you things you clearly don’t care about (who even has hobbies these days? Let’s be real, all we do is binge Netflix and eat avocados) so what better way to help you learn about me than letting you take control?
