Work on “The Anonymous Letters” continues, and each day brings new discoveries. Sometimes characters act contrary to my plans, as if acquiring their own will.

Every poem I write begins with an image — a bright, often anxious flash of emotion or experience that demands to be embodied in words. My latest work, “Departure,” was born from the chaotic energy of a train station—a place where beginnings and ends collide in a whirlwind of movement and noise. Initially, it was

There’s something wonderfully paradoxical about experiencing the Venice Architecture Biennale—this exhibition of radical futures unfolding within one of the world’s most preciously preserved historical environments.

The Imperial College campus buzzes with academic energy, but my mind frequently wanders beyond its modern glass structures to the city that surrounds it. London in winter holds a particular kind of magic—a dance between shadow and illumination, history and innovation, belonging and alienation. As I navigate my first months of the Strategic Marketing program,

London is shrouded in November fog, dissolving the outlines of buildings and transforming the city into a space between reality and dream. On such days, you feel especially acutely how thin the line is between the material and the imagined. I write these lines sitting in a half-empty café near South Kensington—a district that will

Yesterday I completed my final exam of this academic year. The university campus has emptied—students have scattered in all directions, while I remain alone with the silence of the library and my thoughts.
