A few times in my life, I recall being asked the same question over and over again: If you were granted one wish, what would it be? Literally, the question in itself is quite simple but its dimensions and layers upon layers of dept creates its complexity. Well, for me at least. See the thing […]

Dear 2010, I love you. What can I say?  You were my year. You were the year where everything seemed to fall into place for me, the year where I’ve experienced one of my biggest accomplishments, and most of all, the year that opened a new chapter in an already heavy book that I call my […]

Hello everyone. So I’ve decided to use my blog for something more rather than letting it all be related to the academia. A sort of diary of my thoughts, feelings and who I am in general. We lead a very fast-paced life and there are moments where you tell yourself “if only I had a remote […]
