An altruistic heroine next door 👩

'I'll pair you up, you'll have to interview each other and then you'll write about your partner's lifestory' were pretty much my professor's words that filled me with dread. I hate pair or group assignments as I hate socialising. So I was totally surprised at the feelings of hopefulness and gratitude that flooded me once I completed this task.  My partner was Sue with whom I had exchanged no looks or words before the interview. She fearlessly opened up to me about her life and I want to share the bits that impacted me the most and I believe that can inspire any human that comes across this post.

Thoughts about doing a Masters in Nottingham

MAJOR LIFE UPDATE: Three weeks ago, I moved from Greece to Nottingham, UK and I am doing a Masters in Creative Writing at the University of Nottingham. Yeah 🙌 The realisation that I am actually living my dream hasn't really sunk in yet. It took me over a year to prepare and apply for this degree and it feels crazy that now I learn about and practise on a field I am so passionate about while I live in a beautiful country abroad.
