Fresh Mid Morning with Elise Akooko

Elise Akooko, from Windhoek born and raised, so I’m a city girl through and through!😅

I completed my secondary school at Cosmos High school. Oh and I have a thing for languages! I speak about 5 languages and partially understand 2 more.

I’m a DIY queen! I love keeping my hands busy with Tedious little tasks like sewing, knitting, crocheting and braiding. If I can get creative and do it myself, I probably will.
