Dear London – hi. Hello. I have only been here once before, now I am here for a year. You are centuries old and I’m young and tiny, but I think we will get along just fine.

So, London – veni vidi mansi. Eamus!

a new beginning. || 8th September, 2017

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow I’m boarding my plane to a new country. To a new city full of millions of people and towards a masters degree at one of the best universities in the field.

I’m not nervous yet. That usually happens at the airport. I’ve packed my things, cleared my head a little, taken a few last photos of home and house and family.

It’s probably just a new chapter – but it feels like a new book. I have no idea what is going to happen, but that is okay. Any journey is worth going on, and maybe I’ll find a few great adventures and words along the way.

Dear London – I’m coming.

We’re too young to worry this much, they say. We’re too young to ask for that much change, they hiss. When else will we worry, we scream, and how else will we bring change, if we can’t be sure to grow old enough to be allowed worries and anger and actions by them?

We are born in September. We are children of autumn, daughters of the wildest storms, sons of the ancient equinox. Change does not come for us. We bring it upon the world.
