Let me be medicine

There’s something good, something healthy, about doing one of these end of the year type posts, that i hadn’t really thought of until i started working on it over Christmas in Denmark. Even though it’s a lot of work and turns out messy and what’s the point even, and ugh, it forces you to really …

Saudade

From the future self journal: “It’s still early morning at the house and i can tell it’s gonna be a warm day. It already is. It’s spring. I can hear the birds singing and there’s a lazy gray cat on my bed. She hears them too. Soft light is flooding the bed from the large …

I still struggle with trying not to divide life into before and after. Before. After.

Seestern

A beautiful summer day in Berlin a few weeks ago, before the weather got a little too grey and autumn-like. A Saturday. I was up early, and he had barely slept, and we decided to go to the lake. Me, because i love swimming and going on adventures. Him, mostly because he wanted to make …

Converge

It says a lot about my life that i can only find time to sit down and write when i’m on holiday. So i’m in Denmark. I started out in Copenhagen, coming in late at night, Friday after work. A night on Martin’s couch, and breakfast with Mille. Then a train to the countryside, with …
