Bloggers We Love: Namafu Amutse
We don’t only stalk fashion blogs, we are also big fans of personal blogs. Those that make you feel like there’s someone else out there who thinks the way you do. Words and thoughts you can relate to. Words you probably wouldn’t be able to put into words but someone can.
Our blogger crush today gives us just that. Namafu Amutse of The Shameless Wanderer.
8 Questions for Namafu
1. Describe yourself in three words
Black, carefree and a feminist.
2. Describe your blog
My blog is a lot of things. It’s serious, it’s honest/open and it’s funny.
3. What you want your readers to get from it?
At the end of every blog post I share a lesson and therefore I can just hope my lessons are something people can learn from.
4. Why did you start a blog?
I started blogging because I especially wanted to write for myself and in many ways, I’m also writing for others. Writing helps me especially express myself to myself.
5.What do you do for fun?
This might come off as odd but when I’m listening to music, everything I do is fun. Washing and ironing clothes is fun, cooking is fun and even cleaning the house is fun. I get so hyped up!
6.Your favourite blogger?
Namibian Bloggers. That’s one person, I swear.
7. Favourite quote?
Word. There are so many, but I’ll share a quote I recently heard in a video by Denzel Washington where he said,
“Don’t just aspire to make a living. Aspire to make a difference.”
I couldn’t agree more with this quote because many times we tend to fall into the trap of working to just make a living. But how beautiful it would be if we did more that just that and actually aspired to make a difference. To lift each other and take off – together.
8. What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learnt this year?
Patience is key. Rushing will get you there in pieces. Imagine waiting and getting there whole. Be patient and what must come shall come at just the right time.
