Introducing Jugpreet Bajwa

Hello everyone! For my first post of November, I want to introduce to you all another musician I have recently found and started listening to. His name is Jugpreet Bajwa and he is awesome! I have done some research to find out more about this incredible person and here is what I have found.

Jugpreet Bajwa is 26 years old and from Vancouver, Canada.
Jugpreet is an Indo-Canadian classical, folk and rock singer who can sing in 16 different languages including English, French, Hindi and Punjabi.
He has been trained in both Western and Indian Classical styles of music.
Sadly, he lost his sight due to eye cancer when he was only six months old but he never let that stop him from going for what he wanted.
At six years old, Jugpreet started performing on stage and he has participated in over 1000 shows.
In 2008, he performed in the Bollywood Ek Tara competition in Vancouver and in 2016, he performed in ZeeTV's SaReGaMaPa singing competition in Mumbai where he was one of the top 3 finalists.
He has raised funds for various charitable societies and trusts.
He was a runner up on Canadian Desi Idol in 2009 and in BC Junior Talent Competition.
Jugpeet won the RED FM Idol 2010 award.
In 2013, Jugpreet was honoured with the Queen Elizabeeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal by the Governor General of Canada.
Actor Salman Khan praised his performance at a competition.
Jugpreet has released music albums which are called Juggy de Nakhare, Gurbani Shabad Kirtan, Dil Vich and Rabb Diyaan Gallan.
He has sung the American and Canadian National Anthems at several Ice Hockey games. Most recently, he sang at the Vancouver Canucks game at Rogers Arena on November 5th.
His vision is to spread love and peace through music and he aspires to open a music-therapy school.

I saw a video of Jugpreet's performance at the Canucks game and he was amazing. So many people have said they would like him to sing at more games and I agree. There are so many videos on his YouTube channel. I'm slowly getting through them all but enjoyed the ones I have already watched. I think I have listened to Begana ten times. It's beautiful and I am looking forward to hearing his next song, Mera Jaani, which will be released on November 7th. That's Canadian time so us Australians have to wait an extra day. Jupreet Bajwa is another one of my favorite musicians. I highly recommend you all check him out and follow him on social media. He has already won the hearts of millions and I am sure he will win a million more hearts of people from all over the world.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar. I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed. There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...

The Prove It Game

The public opinions on Meghan Markle, or Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are divided. Some love her and most seem to hate her. I admire her in some ways. I just watched an interview she did with podcast host Jamie Kern Lima and something she said resonated with me. Image from Jamie Kern Lima YouTube. Here it is: "We spend so much of our lives trying to prove something. You have to prove that you're enough, you have to prove that you're pretty enough, you have to prove that you're smart enough, you have to prove that you're a good wife or a good friend, and I am just so done with the prove it game. When you get to the place where you feel like I don't have to prove anything to you anymore. I don't have to prove that I'm a good person, I don't have to prove that I'm a good wife or mum or friend, I don't have to prove that I work hard. It can be really freeing when you stop playing the prove it game." - Meghan Markle. I completely agree with...

Social Media Ban

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said that the Australian Government will enact laws to ban children under 16 years of age from social media and here I am sharing my thoughts on this. Image from The Chapel Hairdressers - Horsham Facebook page There are many benefits of social media. We can share photos and videos with our families and friends to keep them updated on our lives, instantly communicate with them, have a record of special memories, businesses can promote their products and services, connect with people professionally and do so much more. So many people are working on social media full time as influencers, working with brands and creating content online and some have even married people they met online. Social media can also be used as a weapon. Preteens and teenagers go through puberty, stress about getting good grades at school, do their best to live up to their parents expectations, have many things they are worried about and just wan...
