I am an avid traveller. Or I used to be at least. And traveller is a fancy word - I was a proper tourist. While navigating aimlessly the internet, I came across of a rather boring scene filmed with a phone. The scene was somewhere in Italy, in a small square packed with people watching… Continue reading Lemon trees are my favourite trees
Afterlife
In the last two months I’ve tried my best to avoid any news about Covid. Yet, is was not easy since we are basically living our lives on social media and, either I want it or not, I came across all sorts of articles, speculations, theories and all, that you are probably aware as much… Continue reading Afterlife
You are doing great, babe
A year ago today I was in Lisbon. I got reminded of that thanks to google. And the crazy thing is that I was there only for the day. I flew early in the morning and got back with a late flight. I am not proud of it. But it was a crazy amazing one… Continue reading You are doing great, babe
The one where “The Savages” lose hope
While the Plague continues to ravage their world, The Savages impatience is growing exponentially. After three weeks of isolation it can be observed that panic, anxiety, anger and a morbid silence provoked by the worrisome disease is taking over the communities. The streets are empty. Entire metropolitan areas that used to beam with tumultuous life… Continue reading The one where “The Savages” lose hope

After passing the… Continue reading Update
Lockdown à la belgè
Am visat ca eram in anul 2020. Adică 2020 e oarecum ficțiune, da’ așa am visat. Se făcea ca eram la Bruxelles (haha!), sa mă înțelegeți, acolo as fi ales eu in viitor sa trăiesc. Întrebându- ma, așa retoric, de ce am ales acest loc dintre atâtea altele, nu am știut sa imi răspund. Dar… Continue reading Lockdown à la belgè
Astăzi
M-am trezit devreme. Nu se mai doarme așa mult, somnul e overrated oricum. Mi- am luat toate hainele “de zi” pe dos. Cui îi mai pasă? Tataie își lua intenționat cămașa de corp pe dos, să nu îl prindă blestemele. Când mă spălam pe dinți mi- am lovit așa tare gingiile cu periuța de dinți… Continue reading Astăzi
The social animal
“Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual. Anyone who either cannot lead the common life or is so self-sufficient as not to need to, and therefore does not partake of… Continue reading The social animal
Another day
I think it’s the 8th or 9th day of isolation. Today was particularly hard. Emotions hit you when you least expect and today was one of those days. I am mostly numb, and I move automatically from one room to another, also my brain starts having some break from it all. What day is it?… Continue reading Another day
