Thirty Days of Discovery: My Journey on Vocal Media
When I first signed up for Vocal Media, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. I knew it was a platform where writers from different walks of life could publish their work, but beyond that, my knowledge was minimal. What I discovered in my first month, however, has been far more than just an outlet for words — it has been an experience of growth, self-discovery, and connection.

The lesson I learned from my biggest travel error.
My Biggest Travel Mistake And What It Taught Me Travel is one of the greatest teachers I’ve ever had. It has taught me patience when flights are delayed, resilience when plans fall apart, and wonder when a new culture sweeps me off my feet. But if I’m being honest, the sharpest lessons didn’t come from picture-perfect moments. They came from the missteps, the frustrating, tearful, bone-tired mistakes that tested my love for travel and reshaped how I approach it today.

Every day musings 2
First off, what is friendship? Yeah, I know… sounds like a stupidly-simple question. But is it? No one person, even between just two people, can decide if the other one is friends with them. If we’re honest with ourselves, we absolutely grapple with that uncertainty. We grapple with it every time.
