My alarm goes off
Quite early, I’m a morning person and I feel I’m really energetic at that time.
The first thing I do
Is having coffee. I can’t remember a day that didn’t start with it. I find it really relaxing to drink it while listening to some music or just looking outside of my big window.
My typical day involves
I normally work most of the day, either with my students or in the synch field. But of course I always find time to practice, sing and play, or exercise. I have also recently started acting, so that became a part of my daily routine.
The best part of my day
The best part is when I am free in the evening and I have some time to sing. It’s really helpful to release the stress of the day and I can go on for hours, sometimes realising I have to eat dinner way too late!
The worst pay of my day is when...
I wouldn’t say it’s the WORST part, but it’s hard to love my job some days!
At the end of my day I will...
Depending on how I feel, sometimes I feel inspired to write music in the evening, when everything is quite still and silent. Some other times I just listen to music or watch some series, or listen to ASMR (I admit I became quite addicted to the latter!)
If I wasn’t a musician I’d be....
I never really imagined being anything else than a musician, so it’s hard to say. I took a Translation Degree, to have the famous ‘plan B’, but I think I would make a really frustrated translator! However, I have many hobbies, so I would still be involved with arts, especially movie making. Or maybe even a journalist, I used to write a lot when I was younger but then I abandoned that field to focus on music.
