It’s 22:37, I have Ed Sheeran playing in my headphones and everything in me wants to scream and punch the walls (I would probably hurt myself). I have somewhat accepted that 2020 has definitely taken a wrong turn and the plans I had may not have a chance anymore. That’s just the reality. On some …
The truth is nobody was ready for this and here we are, our lives turned upside down by this little big thing. We can not positively talk it away, neither can we affirm it away. It is just here terrorizing us, day after day and it is taking lives of the ones we love. I …
I love street markets. Besides the obvious allure of a bargain bonanza, the streets always seem to mirror life in its most unfiltered of forms.

There are days I wish I was an alpha female.. God knows I would lean on myself more than other people. I would walk the streets, look people in the eye and never be afraid to ask them why they are looking. I would call people out on their bullshit, out loud, right there and …
I remember when I started blogging and my blog was an actual mess. It had too many names, too many categories, nothing made sense except for the stuff I wrote of course. I look back and I realize that I had something in me that I wanted to say but didn’t know how to let …
