Essays, observations & questions
exploring business, travel, the patterns of everyday life and more
One might think that a writer’s greatest strength must be the expression of the written word onto a blank page. But that skill is only secondary. A writer’s true capability lies in the ability to question the things around them – being curious about why things are the way they are and what if they were different? Without the ability to question, there wouldn’t be anything to express and put on the page in the first place.

why I write
"Writing, to me, is simply thinking through my fingers."
- Isaac Asimov
Writing and the creative expression through it has been with me since I can remember. As a kid it was a way for me to gain control of my surroundings – even if just the imagined ones – and create something that was mine. As a teen and young adult, journaling became my outlet for unspoken words and feelings. As a now seasoned overthinker and observer of life, I still find writing to be my favourite form of expression. Playing around with words in languages that aren’t even my native ones, gives me an additional feeling of accomplishment. My dream now is, to write my heart and soul out about things that matter – to me and hopefully the world. That includes our own mental health that we leave to suffer for far too long, about the little things that we can do in our daily lifes to make our surroundings better, the double standards of the crazy society we have created and much more. I will never cease to write, as it is part of who I am and how I express myself and my world. My dream is to give something back to the people reading it, them being able to see themselves through my words and know that they are not alone in this beautiful craziness we call life.
