About Me

Born in Macedonia, I currently live in Edinburgh, Scotland and doing a masters degree, so life's pretty busy at the moment.

When I am not studying, I am very interested in meeting new people and exploring other cultures, having meaningful and fulfilling conversations, and just being in the world, really. I also enjoy reading and writing, so I leave you with a treat from one of the best Portugese poets...

Ah, the first minutes in cafés of new cities!
The early morning arrivals at docks or at stations
Full of a tranquil and luminous silence!
The first pedestrians on the streets of a just-reached city,
And the special sound of time's passing when we travel...

The buses or streetcars or automobiles...
The novel look of streets in novel countries...
The peace they seem to offer for our sorrow,
The happy bustle they have for our sadness,
Their absence of monotony for our wearied heart!
The large, dependably right-angled squares,
The streets with rows of buildings that converge in the distance,
The cross streets with unexpected things of interest,
And in all of this, like something that floods without ever overflowing,
Motion, motion,
Swift-colored human thing that passes and remains...

The ports with their unmoving ships,
Intensely unmoving ships,
And small boats close by, waiting...

Álvaro de Campos, Fernando Pessoa
