Hi everyone... I know it’s been a while. How have you been? I hope you’ve been keeping safe and sane. It’s been an interesting few months hasn’t it? Lol. Okay so, this is my last post on The Wawa New Yorker... After 5 years, it’s finally time for a transition. I have started a new project, which I am about to tell you about.
