Dear Lucia, Once again, the ocean separates us. I have spent the day today getting settled (and being depressed in bed) at my new apartment in Hamburg. I was pleasantly surprised yesterday when I arrived at how spacious it is- I am playing the same amount as my last apartment in Reykjavik but it is…… Continue reading Hallo aus Deutschland!

The art of being good
Dear Alex, Recently I was sitting in the car with a friend and my eyes were in so much pain, and I knew it was because I’ve been starring at my phone for hours on end that day, but I didn’t want to admit it.

Making friends off of the playground (feelings – sorry)
Dear Alex, It’s been a confusing past number of months. As you know I started a job, and it’s been a rollercoaster of emotions every other day.

The Confusing Reality of Adulthood
So originally I was gonna write about the history of Valentines Day (happy Valentines Day) but I ended up getting sucked into my finances and future plans.
