Even a Stopped Clock Gets It Right Sometimes

Failed marriages have a funny way of teaching hard truths. Sometimes we were wrong, sometimes they were wrong, and sometimes a broken relationship still manages to point at wisdom twice a day. A humorous and honest look at love, failure, and the strange comfort of imperfect people trying their best.

Quick Q and A!

What’s a mystery from your own life that you’ve never solved? The mystery from my own life I’ve never solved is how some decisions seem to arrive long before you understand them.For years, I had little thoughts that didn’t make much sense at the time. I wanted old places. I wanted travel. I wanted history, stories, graveyards, stone houses, strange corners of the world, and a life that felt more like mine.At the time, they were just thoughts.Then one by one, they started joining […]

Doors I Wanted to Open But Probably Shouldn’t.

Apparently, I have developed a thing for doors.Not normal doors. I’m not wandering around taking photos of freshly painted suburban front doors with shiny new handles and sensible security screens. No offence to practical doors, but they are not really my thing.I mean old doors.The strange ones.The heavy ones.The crooked ones.The ones tucked into stone walls or half-hidden in corners.The ones with iron hinges, peeling paint, arched tops, tiny windows, thick timber, bolts, latches and enough […]

Thirty, Somehow: A Birthday Reflection on Survival, Loss, and the Fragile Hope of Starting Again

I’m thirty years old today. And I’m sitting here thinking, holy shit. I actually made it. That sentence feels heavier than it probably should. People say it casually all the time, like getting older is just something that happens automatically, like breathing. But for me, and I think for a lot of us whether we admit it or not, making it to thirty doesn’t feel automatic. It feels earned. It feels like surviving something.

Got robbed in Namibia by two armed attackers… since then things have been pretty tough—mentally and financially.

I need to replace my device and cut costs, so right now I’m basically living on porridge. Not gonna lie though, it actually tastes good.

This weekend I might go to the mall and treat myself to a coffee ☕
