I’ve maintained this blog for 9 years, and have written about my travels, strangers I’ve met, and my musings on the media and life. During the COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020, I spent a lot of time reflecting and revisiting my old work. Many of the writings were once fragmented ideas in Letters to No One, and others from places I’ve existed on the internet. I hope I’m a better writer now and I’m really proud of what I’ve included here.
These poems are little time capsules of moments I was searching for love while trying not to lose myself in it. They’re an ode to my chaotic 20s, which I loved but would gladly never live again. Enjoy!
