First Blog Post - Intro
Photography is my main way of communication. Photography made me feel comfortable with my place in the universe.
There's still many things in life that I want to do aside from photography. So many books and films to see that I've missed out on all these years. Many of life's hidden gems has been piled over by current affairs, social media trends and mainstream news.
The same way I'm sharing interesting moments through my photography, the purpose of this blog is to share other interesting things that I have crossed paths with that you might find meaningful as well.
A lot of the topics I found interesting were through people’s blogs whether on their website or their Tumblr or X account. I had no idea that I would be interested in things like quantum physics, world cinema, James Joyce’s Ulysses or the great Russian writers. In that same way I hope one of the topics or discussions I bring up in my blog post might spark something in someone else as those individuals did for me.
I have no idea where this blog is going to go. The blog is free to read (for now (I might paywall it later)).
Another reason I want to write here directly on my own site as opposed to where everyone else is writing on (substack, medium, x, patreon) I want more of my writing to have less numbers and stats attached to them. Yes there are smart writers utilizing the reach these platforms offer. But I think the problem is that they are writing about what’s trending because it has proven to bring more engagement. Here, I write without the stats attached want to write in a more pure place. I want to write what concerns and interests me.
I want to be authentic as possible to whoever sees my content but most importantly myself. This will all be proof of the journey to make a living on my own.
If any of this was of value to you feel free to leave a small tip on my buy me a coffee page
