Welcome, and thank you for being here.

Not all summers feel the same. Some arrive with half-packed suitcases, improvised goodbyes, and quiet promises whispered… “See you in Europe, okay?” We’ve been walking together for three months now.

Aunque sea asĂ, escribiendo. Aunque no me respondas. Aunque ya no te importe. Porque llevo semanas —meses, incluso— sintiĂ©ndome en […]
Some mornings, you wake up feeling brave. Not because it stopped hurting, but because you finally find the courage to say out loud what your soul has been crying in silence.

The heat is growing slowly here in Dubai… …It’s Sunday, June 8th. and my heat is… well, everywhere. I hopped on my bike this morning and rode to Odeon on Jumeirah Beach Road. I sat in the sunshine, breathing in the Paris‑vibe cafĂ© charm, and savoured a buttery, flaky croissant. That moment—so simple, yet so alive—it […]
Any resemblance to reality is purely a coincidence… Today I feel inspired. And guess what? Dubai is the place to feel inspired again. Why? Because it’s summer, darling. And if you’ve ever spent a summer in Dubai, you already know: This is not a season—it’s a mood. A heatwave. A reset. A surreal state of […]
