This one is going to be a long post. What the hell, it was 20 freaking 20! If you are reading this, then you made it through. Well done!My year had kickstarted in Berlin last year and as one would have hoped, I did too, that I would spend the rest of it travelling and […]

Effect of the lock-down on my mental health
So some of you may know this and some may not. I live alone in Italy and I’ve been pursuing my masters here for a little longer that half a year. While every person I know decided to leave the country before things went down with corona, I decided to stay. I’m not saying either […]

But you’re such a brave girl

Almost ‘happy ending’
Yes, you read that right. Let me tell you in detail, how I got there. My boyfriend had been going for reflexology sessions back in his town. A numb ankle from excessive driving being the main reason for it. This weekend he came down to spend sometime with me. Which meant he’d be missing the […]
