Chilling with 4 Fresh Faces in Sydney

Sydney

— October 20, 2019 —

Sure, it’s always nice to see a familiar face, but sometimes it’s cool to meet a new one, too. Consider yourself extra lucky, because today we bring you four!

Teens Ennaria, Jade, Eva and Alice might all be unique in their own way, but the one thing they have in common is that they’re wise beyond their years. This can be evidenced in everything from their ideas of Utopia to the words they live by, which you can soak up in our conversations with them below. 

The four little angels also happen to be pros in front of the camera—once you’re done reading, go and say a big hello to them in the gallery above where proof of their natural talent awaits ( ・_・)ノ. 

 

Name: Ennaria Tiffany
Nickname(s): Starburst!
Age: 18
Star Sign: Leo

Where are you from and where do you live now? 
I’m from Sydney, Australia. I’ve never moved house, however it’s my dream to live in Tokyo, Japan.

Where would you take someone visiting your hometown for the first time?
I would probably take them on a walking tour all around the city. I would show them cute cafes, boutiques and little hole-in-the-wall type places they wouldn’t normally find! Or, I’d take them to my favourite nightclub. 

Go-to ice cream flavour? 
Mint choc chip! Or rainbow! If it’s gelato, then blood orange.

Coolest thing you’ve learned recently?
Sometimes the only person you can rely on is yourself. And, also the ‘praying hands emoji’ was initially intended to be a high five. 

In your opinion what is the best meal on Earth? 
Japanese chicken katsu curry! And then Baskin Robbins afterwards! (All in Tokyo of course!). 

What is your idea of Utopia? 
A world where people can be who they are, love who they want, dress how they want and do what they like without prejudice or judgement. Cheaper Starbucks would be nice, too! 

What do you want to be when you grow up? 
I want to be the person I needed and wanted to look up to as a kid. Hopefully one day I can inspire people. 

Words to live by:
You can’t hate yourself into a version of yourself you can love.
