If I'm not working, creating content or attending events/socialising you'll find me at gym, going on hikes, going to food markets, learning new things, playing with my cats, exploring creative outlets like painting or dreaming up new side hustles.

Some facts about me:

I have 2 cats, Oreo and Lily, both of which I adored from 4Paws, an animal shelter in Diepsloot.

I'm also passionate about celebrating and learning about minority cultures.
I love collaborating and mentoring others in the marketing and content creation spaces.

Life By Asha Singh started as a personal blog when I was a student. It was a way for me to practice my writing, have a creative outlet as well as build a portfolio. Through creating content for my blog and social media, I found a passion for marketing and later pursued a career in digital marketing. My blog also continued to evolve, and is now a travel-focused lifestyle blog with news-worthy content for a South African audience.
