Last semester I took a course called Birth of Learning. It was basically a philosophic attempt at understanding the evolution of educational practices in the West, starting with antiquity and ending on modern American school systems. I’ve always been extremely fascinated by education. Why it “works” for some and not for others? My professor asked [...]
I don’t like to think about my life in year increments. Living in New England/NYC, I typically divide my life into seasonal sections, but for the sake of this post, I will consider 2018 as one singular block of my life. I read a lot. I completed 28 books, about 2 a month, which is [...]

I napped for quite some time upon arrival to the Airbnb. Then found a place for dinner at around 7pm. Had some amazing tomato soup and [...]
