Do you ever stop to think about the new habits you incorporate into your life? How long they last? Do they impact your life positively or negatively? Do you keep track of them? A few years ago, I started the habit of doing anything I needed to do that required less than a minute to… Continue reading Ode to New Habits
In 2020, I fell short of meeting my reading goal by just a handful of books - ironic considering the entire year was spent stationary in quarantine, lockdown, at home. My reading goal for 2021 is to read 52 books; I've met this goal before and hope to surpass it (fingers crossed), but I also… Continue reading January Books Recap
When I try to reflect at the end of the year, I undoubtedly forget milestones that were hit in the past 12 months, especially if they were small. But often, it is not insignificant, small, simple milestones that lead to extraordinary impact. As a way to rectify that inevitable oversight, I have decided to keep… Continue reading January Milestones: What Were They?

Our enemy is not a person, a nation,… Continue reading How To Survive Quarantine

I initially wanted to do it because the walls… Continue reading Let’s Talk Framing
January 22, 2020 - I know the post will be dated but I felt it was important to pen it myself because I started this draft on December 31, 2019 (after ten days of struggling to make time for it).

This one alone day in Helsinki really made me realize how much I need a solo trip, with no plans, no set itinerary; Just me and a semi-familiar or even unfamiliar place.
