Unlocking Personalities: 73 Questions (Yes, like Vogue) + NEW YT video

Updated: Sep 24

Hello! I feel like I haven't done a 'fun facts' about me type of post in a while - I know I did the "Things I Wish People Knew About Me (Unfiltered Edition)" recently, but I've been focusing a lot on academic style of writing - so why not change it up a bit?


I'm sure we're all familiar with Vogue's video style "73 questions" where they go into people's houses and ask them literally 73 questions like rapid fire but I saw some other bloggers do it (and yes, like back in 2019 "here"). I really wanted something fun for the blog, so I thought why not try my hand at this?

The idea is that all questions can be answered in under 10 minutes! I mean I can try but I highly doubt I'll be able to type that fast (and yes, I know you can speak to type but Benji is asleep and I don't wanna sound like a dork).




The Questions!


  1. What’s your favourite time of day? Golden hour - either morning or night, but usually night because I'm less sleepy

  3. What’s your biggest strength? Never giving up

  4. What’s the biggest learning experience you’ve had? Moving countries and all that came with it

  5. What’s your idea of a perfect date? Dinner followed by cocktails and a nice evening walk - as long as it's with Luke

  42. If you were not a blogger, what would you be doing? I do blogging, photography, and I kinda wanna write a book too! Although I've had a lot of different jobs in my life, I think I'm finally on the right path. Maybe parallel universe me was super good at science and got into forensics

  71. Who do you turn to when you’re sad? Luke, Benji, friends etc.

  72. What’s a trend you would like to see disappear forever? This might be controversial but I hate those bodysuit things - like doesn't it make it really hard to go to the bathroom? And yes, they look good on women and really accentuate the figure, but I don't think I'd ever be comfortable in one
