Welcome to my Blog!

I’m a part-time nursing student, working in healthcare, and somehow still thought starting a blog was a smart idea. So here we are.

This is where life, light, and stories meet: reflections on everyday moments, the books that shape me, and the photos I take when I’m trying to make sense of it all. You’ll find a mix of curiosity, chaos, and calm—sometimes structured (thanks, nursing brain), sometimes delightfully off-track (thanks, real life).


It’s mostly about living with intention, seeing beauty in ordinary things, and keeping track of it all before I forget. Expect photography, books, personal growth—and the occasional existential playlist.

I focus on macro, animal, and black and white photography. This section includes practical insights, tools I use, and how I work with natural light and detail.

In this section, I share reviews and reading insights from both nonfiction and fiction. I write about books that inform, challenge, or simply stay with me.

This section covers topics like studying while working, routines, and mental health. I write from personal experience with a focus on what works in everyday life.
