I love to read, so much so that I often slip into alternative universes of my own making, quiet spaces where I can escape the chaos of reality and meet the version of myself I sometimes feel I’ve lost - my inner child. I have a pet, Pepper, my dearest companion. Some days, I wish I could be him -carefree, content, untouched by the weight of overthinking. I love writing poems and learning languages. To me, languages are mirrors- they reflect the soul of a culture, its history, its way of seeing the world. I enjoy both talking and listening, the exchange of stories and silences alike.
