My Introductory Post |by @nackasnelson

Introducing Myself

Here on Hive’s blog, my username is

@nackasnelson. But my real name is actually Rosita, as named by my father. One might wonder my choice of username. Well, all I can say is that I lost a bet😅.

I am 20 years old and a young Cameroonian female, third out of four children. My country is bilingual with English and French as it's official languages, both of which I'm fluent in.

Born in the city of Bamenda which is located in the English speaking part of the country, I am a native English speaker. I also had all my education right up till the university, in schools whose language of instruction is English.

I am a student in the University, pursuing an undergraduate teaching diploma in Mathematics. Despite my deep roots in the sciences, I have a passion for the arts out of school.

I love music, enjoying both the art of singing and dancing. I am also a writer, working freelance. So I see every avenue as an opportunity to improve upon my writing skills. As with better skills come better writing opportunities and I will be able to venture out professionally into the world and make a living.

Recently, I decided to improve upon my photography skills after discovering that I love being behind the camera more than being in front of it. It gives me a feeling of joy to capture any image with a particular perspective so as to tell a story I could write about. Photography also gives me inspiration for writing so that's a bonus😅.

Before I go any further, I need to emphasize on the point that due to being an African, I am blessed with not only melanin rich skin, but kinky black African hair as well🥰. So I am a naturalista and have been one for 28 months. So it is safe to say that I am positively obsessed about my hair and treat it with the utmost care. Thus, it should come as no surprise that I might write a lot about hair care and everything hair related🙃.
