Media personality Sharon Mundia has explained why she does not drink alcohol.

Responding to a Q and A session with her fans, Mundia said her weight is one of the reasons she does not drink.

She added that she doesn’t like the smell of alcohol and she doesn’t make the best decisions when drunk.

"And something about that, the fact that several drinks can change someone’s character makes me uncomfortable," she said.

"Even with my loved ones, particularly men. I just don’t like the way alcohol can turn someone to behave completely different.

"That being said, if I’m in a safe space with close friends, I’d happily let loose! And despite not drinking, I'll always try and have some drinks in my home so I can offer some to my loved ones.

"It’s just the part where people get completely wasted that makes me uncomfortable."

A few months ago, Mundia announced that she is taking a long break from blogging.

She expressed unhappiness with the direction her career is taking, adding that she has been grateful for the journey.

"I just don't really feel like I am and if it has any kind of impact, if just those kind of existential type of questions: what I'm doing with my life and what I had decided to focus on. And so I asked what are the numbers, how much are we making?"

She said the break would help her restrategise.
