The topic of interest would revolve around food and drinks, entertainment and a bit of fitness. Anything and everything that ables me to network. Currently, my postings are laid back, places I’ve visited and mainly pictures of people who inspire me. I am also working on a new approach that would make my Instagram more interactive and not just pictures of myself.

3) How did your Instagram name come about?

My first name which is Sherwina was very much for the public to use and the dx which D represents Deepa my middle name and X is basically a value that is not yet known. Directs back to what I would and could be known for.

4) What are some apps you use to edit your photos? Share with us your photo-editing routine!

The honest truth most of my pictures do not have edits, how you see them is how it has been taken. Basic editing would be to play around with the brightness, the richness of the image and some pictures I do remove certain elements on the photo captured.

Jane Chuck who is an Entrepreneur & the Founder of Chuck’s – has very minimal elements but the pictures speak the message
aliazaita is another Instagrammer who I am able to relate much with and she produces content on Youtube and she is certainly a vibe.

I would not claim myself as an influencer on the virtual end but if it’s to influence close friends and to make sure what I preach out there is what I practice. I would be glad to share it with the world.
But a favourite point I could see myself in would be to know that there are people who share the same POV and even if it’s different it keeps the conversation going.
