No loans, no debt, no daddy's money. I started earning my own pocket money when I was 14. That was a long time ago. All the work was paid in cash. Every time I got paid, I brought the money home and left

The HIVE Voluntary Service has come to an end. Almost two weeks of volunteering at @krolestwo and covering expenses with HBD, a plan that @hallmann came up with. I can now happily start working on posts

First snow of the season has descended in Krakow. The city of incredible history, culture, and castles, is now slowly being ganached in a soft and fragile layer of fresh snow. The bright and saturated

It's just past the middle of my 2 weeks of HIVE Voluntary Service at the @krolestwo. I haven't yet brought myself to write about this experimental pilot in a chronological order. Partially because of a

Bronze statues oxidised to moss green, baroque church tops, and stories of those that shall never be named again, buried into carvings of a stone - things that have slowly crept out of my photography posts.

Day 2, already?! Where's day 1, @blind-spot? The beauty of it is that there's so much happening that between pre-day 1 and day 1, day 2 has already arrived. Since coming to @krolestwo, this has been the

I still find it immensely challenging to eloquently put into words what my feelings are about being here. A story of community, friendship, trust, support and much more is embedded in this little treasure

One of the most historic gatherings of ships and boats is the SAIL Amsterdam event on the Ij. Historically, it is celebrated every 5 years, but the last event was cancelled due to COVID, making this edition

Save the best for the last? Where'sthe fun in that? I love scouwering through the mystical webs of the internet to look for a good pizza. Often more than not, I fail miserably. Most of the best pizzas

More than two years ago, I noticed a massive gap. There still weren't proper frameworks or systems in place to match the dire needs of the recently distraught. Flocks of children, elders, couples, women

Video recording of presentation added below Being the first presentation on that stage for the day was a huge advantage. HIVE could be the first and only thought on everyone's mind and also set the tone

This year, the celebrations around the country were more cohesive. I remember the first event I put together, it was almost a one man show. I even wanted to involve some hivers living in the Netherlands.

You wouldn't believe how excited I got when the corner of my eye caught breakdancing on the TV. "Olympics now has breakdancing as an event?" I said both in shock and surprise. Back in the day,

Museums are educational, inspiring, and encourage creativity. They teach us of history, bring together the community and enrich culturally. I've been to more than I count, and learned more than I can remember.

It's been three summers now. Wow. Time flies—third summer. The last two have been fleeting, and the sun remained shy, and miser with its warmth. So far, sunny days have been an exception and not a standard.

I will catch a lot of hate for this, but the Eiffel Tower was a bit overrated. What made me appreciate the tower was all the history and the waves of dying and birthing of cultures it had seen. The guys

Learnt a lot about bird watching, the last two weeks. But if the title of this post tells you anything, then you already know this post isn't about birdwatching. However, it is an interesting hobby, once

Yet another Eid away from friends and family. One thing that's a positive within the negative is that Kharkiv is finally getting help. "Finally" may seem hyperbolic to some but this frontline

Haarlem is one city that finds its way back to my heart no matter how unlovable my heart seems to make itself. The air itself feels different. I could walk the tiny Dutch roads, the comically sized bridges,

Sun out, and on the weekend - couldn't ask for a better day. It is incredibly rare to find such days in the low flat lands of the Netherlands. When it does happen, it is a public celebration. I originally
