One month to go – countdown

January 15, 2021

Last month in my twenties. Does it change anything? No. Does it matter? Yes. Why? I don’t know. Maybe because I have this idea that a girl will have most definitely disappeared into a women. It probably happened a long time ago. And just because I still don’t know what I am doing, does not mean it hasn’t already happened.…

How much can you change in heart?

July 28, 2020

It was one of those cool evenings that affects you in a way. I was sixteen and on my own in Spain for the first time, learning Spanish and getting lost in the streets. I was staying in an almost empty university accommodation because it was the middle of summer. One boy started chatting with me in the computer room…

Can women have it all?

July 2, 2020

Am I really going to tackle such a broad topic in a short blog post? No probably not. I also cannot speak for all the women. Just this one. Me. Slightly lost, yogi, blonde who is obsessed with healthy food. This privileged white girl from a good family with decent education from one of the world’s oldest universities on the…

These days

April 16, 2020

Goddamnit I didn’t imagine that I would spend the last year of my twenties in quarantine. I wanted to drink coffee, read books, cancel plans and do nothing out of my own will! Did the last few years go too fast or what? I know that thirty is the new twenty (surely some people somewhere have said it, at least…

2019 – the year of the Shrimp

February 18, 2019

Now that time is drawing near, I have decided to compile my thoughts on pregnancy. What I really don’t understand is that how come making babies is so much fun but pregnancy is such a drag? Talk about being played by nature. I found out I was pregnant at the beginning of July and few weeks later I had a…

The most wonderful, spectacular show…

October 25, 2018

Nobody will ever explain to me why I had to go through three rounds of interviews across six months to do literally the least skilled job that I ever had to do. My handsome boyfriend lost all credibility as he made me believe that working on Games will be the best thing I will ever do. Hands down the worst…

Full Circle

October 14, 2018

I love the rain. It only took nearly two and a half years away from Scotland to finally admit that. The pleasure that I take from not having to leave the house because it’s so rainy, windy or cold and just allow myself to watch the Crown, read books and get creative, I love it. There are not many days…

Entitled ungrateful generation

June 20, 2017

Whilst I’ve met some fantastic people working in office jobs, the only thing I am sure of, is that I don’t want to work. At least not like this. I have been saying this for a long time so please let me elaborate and explain. When I was the IB president in my high school, my graduation speech was about…

Five months

May 31, 2017

I want to say time flew by, but it seems forever ago when I got off the plane at the Brisbane airport. And here’s a strong opinion I have to offer: Australians are quite possibly the worst drivers that I have ever experienced. This statement is true at least for the city of Gold Coast. These are the thoughts that…

South Island of New Zealand

April 21, 2017

Everything is just temporary. I am becoming very tired of this word. The temporary table in our temporary flat. When am I going to build something that will last a while? I know it’s the same issue over and over again. There are better days and there are worse days. And then there are days when you wonder if there…
