About Me

Why writing and blogging?

I spent most of my childhood in my head, daydreaming about a secular utopia that was fundamentally different from my home country.

​

Feeling alien to the forced social norms, I started giving speeches and writing articles in my early 20s about taboos and topics that created anxiety in society.

Topics like the unheard female voice due to oppressive social beliefs, body-shame, sexual health, perfectionism, mental health and more.

​

My goal was drawn by my naive inner kid whispering that we need to change the world and make it a better place...

​

A little bit more about me?

​

I was raised in a family with some sort of moral values. Like many other teenagers, my parents were shaping my dreams to get educated and move overseas in search of peace and tranquillity in a developed country. 

​

So, yes, I became an engineer with the dream to make the world a better place (I know it sounds cliche but we live with our dreams right?) and I migrated to Australia alone (Yes right, knowing no one, not even a single friend).

​

This journey was not even close to those dreams I had as a kid. The dark phases I went through might be reflected in my writings. The reason is that writing, reading and feeling connected is one of the best ways to find inner peace, don't you agree?

​

You can't simply google some topics and find the answer, you need to LIVE it and FACE it.

​

The death of the loved ones due to cancer and car accident, living with non-curable diseases, quitting smoking, coming out of depression cycles, working with a bully boss and shedding tears every day only to survive as a migrant.

​

These are the phases that anyone might go through and don't know how to face it...

Pathfinder

​

A pathfinder is a fictional character aspiring to guide humans and all species by gathering the most useful, relevant and reliable information. She/he is searching for a new home for humans and other species because of his/her belief that we all live in a world which is not what we meant to live in. 

​

I hope I can make your day a little brighter by sharing useful facts, thoughts and life experiences.
