God, The Bible, Jesus… And My Very Confused Brain
There are two topics I usually avoid like a salad bar in a petrol station: politics and religion. Not because I’m not interested. Oh no, no. It’s because both subjects have an incredible ability to transform perfectly normal people into very passionate, very loud, and very exhausting debaters, convincing each other who is right. Also, my coffee gets cold while they’re trying to convince me.

The Great Mushroom Hunt — The National Sport
Smell of September. That magical time of year when the air smells like wet leaves, damp earth, and… wild mushrooms. In my home country, picking wild mushrooms isn’t just a hobby. It’s practically an Olympic discipline. Forget football, forget tennis, ski jump — mushroom hunting is the national sport.

Waking Up After Thirty: A Love Letter to Slippers, Sore Backs, and Sleep
At 20, I was basically a superhuman-woman. I had the energy of a caffeinated squirrel and the life of a rockstar. Twelve hours of work? No problem. Quick shower, eyeliner flicked on in the dark, and I was out the door—heels clicking, music blasting, ready to dance until 4 a.m. We’d finish the night sipping warm beer by the river as the sun rose, shoes in hand, hair full of secrets. Then back home for another shower, nuclear-grade coffee, and straight to work again.

Dear Diary... Wait, This Is a Blog Now?!
Once upon a time, in the magical era of butterfly hair clips and glitter pens, there was a trend so powerful, so sacred, that every 10-year-old girl swore loyalty to it with the kind of seriousness reserved for royal oaths and Spice Girls fan mail.

"Not a Mother" – And Still a Complete Human Being, Imagine That
Ah yes, motherhood. The noble purpose. The holy grail. The biological escape room. That one thing that apparently completes you, gives you purpose, meaning, spiritual alignment, and sore nipples. What needs to be done to prolong the species. At least, that’s what the movies, relatives, and suspiciously enthusiastic Instagram accounts would have you believe.

Dreams, Sleepwalking & Late-Night Mafia Interrogations
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been living a rich, double life. By day: responsible adult (ish). By night: high-definition dream cinematographer, multilingual negotiator, occasional furniture rearranger. I’m basically Netflix, but weirder, cheaper, and with more nudity.

The Great British Weather
Living in the UK has taught me one crucial thing: the word "rain" is not just a noun. It’s a verb, a lifestyle, a national identity, and quite possibly a religion. It rains. It was raining. It had been raining. It shall rain. It rains sideways. It rains in your soul. It's raining cats and dogs. It's spitting. It rains in your kitchen if your roof hasn’t been updated since the Thatcher era. We have 4 seasons in 2 hours.

Hobby Collector or Hobby Abandoner? Yes
You know that feeling when you just know a new passion has entered your soul? You’re in bed, peacefully scrolling through Instagram or watching a relaxing DIY video on YouTube and BOOM — you’re convinced you were born to crochet. Or laser wood. Or make handmade candles shaped like forest animals.

Dreams, Delusions & Discount Airline Tickets
Once upon a time, I looked up at the sky, squinted dramatically like a child in a 90s movie, and watched a plane slice through the clouds like butter. “Wow”, I thought, “flying must be the most magical thing in the world”.
