I grew up in a family of two with a single mom, she raised both of us without the help of our father, she had a business and that's were i got my first motivation from.
I did my senior high school at Kitwe Boys High, i don't know how i used to pass my exams because i wasn't interested in school stuff until i reached my final year (G.12) - thats when i took a moment and had to think that, if i don't pass just this one exam, then i have wasted 12 years of my life and eventually i became a very serious kid, i started studying and managed to pass my exams.
I love to create stuff, create cartoons, to photograph, in-short i love art.
I started my blogging career in 2010 when and in 2011 a blog on called Zambian Music Blog to write about news in the Zambian entertainment and i somehow i was thinking i am not going to manage to push the blog this far because i was unemployed with no computer and no money for hosting. Just after a year of launching the blog, it was shut down due to high traffic, i needed to upgrade but i had no funds. A year after i started working as a waiter i re-branded the website back, this time on a new domain. It is now the biggest blog in Zambia. I quit my job as a waiter 2 years ago and i have concentrated on trying make my blog into a multi-million business through advertisement.
I would like to use this loan to buy tools that will help me continue expanding my media business. The next thing i want to buy is a Canon EOS 5D Mark II with a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM lens which will cost me about $1,548.00.
