This little furball decided to guard me when I used the bathroom in the middle of the night to make sure I was ok.

Got up, heard paws on the floor a few seconds later and came out the bathroom door to find him sitting there waiting for me to go back to sleep.

He doesn’t like most people.

In #Poland to explore & draw inspiration for a new project.

Poland always felt strange and familiar b/c it’s a place I’ve known from the time I was five, so unpacking old conservative, authoritarian (& in my case also #narcissistic) tendencies with an adult mind is always an interesting adventure.

Growing up with parents who were never part of the culture in Germany and the US became an interesting exercise in trying to make sense of the world around me.

It’s why today I’m so passionate about raising awareness of #cross-cultural #identities.

So if you have any questions, ask away.

Finland sells you a dream until it doesn’t. Truth is, you’ll find little moments to keep you sane because that’s what humans do. But is it enough to keep you here in the long run? A day at the library is great, until reality hits. There’s good and bad everywhere, but which one can justify the other?

Should I do a series on life in Finland as a purely anecdotal observation to put some reality behind the hype? My credentials? 10+ years of experience living in Finland as a French citizen who grew up in the US & Germany and lived in several other countries.

A test. Guess the city.

Exploring a country you semi knew in your #childhood and teens takes on a whole new angle when you #explore it with the benefit of #hindsight and likeminded people by your side. #Poland is an interesting place to be when you’re #notconservative but have the gift of looking beneath layers.

Anyone else feel a sense off relaxation when they’re at an #airport and hear the #safety announcements? No matter where I am (heading), they forever stay the same.

How do you know you’ve made a Finnish friend?

Step 1, they invite you for a walk.

Step 2, they invite you for a sauna session.

Step 3, they invite you to their summer cabin (with the obligatory sauna session).
