ART CRUSH | Jean-Jacques Sempé
I’ve never had a mentor, have never been anyone’s protégée, but fortunately, along the way there have been a couple of artists and writers that I admire so much, both for their art and their personality. They are the ones that I look up to, that I secretly ask questions and get answers from. Their…

MOVIE | Blackfish
I saw this last Sunday, after so much hesitation, because I’d been warned about how shocking and heart-breaking it is. But I love whales and everything around them I would devour with passion. My wish to reincarnate as a Blue still stands firm until now (after a tree, of course!). My favourite has always been…

2022 – A Year in Review
It’s been another year. A special year. A brilliant, sparkling, and heart-breaking year! I’ve reread all my past yearly reviews and each and every year seemed to be such a winding road.

BOOK | Bông hồng vàng – Paustovsky
