not a potato
(:
For as long as I can remember, there are two things I’ve been good at: writing and art. The funny thing is, it took me a decade and a half to realize it. And what’s even funnier is that it’s easy for me to write about what I feel and think.
But writing about myself- that’s hard.
​
I wrote in literature and language classes, where I was always a standout student. I wrote for school assemblies. I wrote rap and I'm still a badass when freestylin. I even performed a couple of times. But when I started journaling to begin a healing process, my writing changed. I stopped trying to please whoever and started pouring it all out.
It was liberating, painful, and healing.
​
I spent most of my years on this earth behind the scenes, like a plain potato next to a chicken dish. Even though I’m actually mashed potatoes- and everyone knows mashed potatoes are way tastier than a dead animal. This is the first time in my life I’m choosing to stop being a side dish and finally owning the kitchen. I want more people to be able to heal. For more souls to connect. And for the first time, I want everyone to know exactly what I have to say.
​
And now for the technical, boring stuff (just because it seems important too). I’m 27, born in Israel and currently living in Athens. I’m a vegetarian, believe in world peace even if it never happens, smoking weed but not doing drugs, and when I’m not chasing my dreams really hard- I work as a marketing manager for businesses in Greece.

So, feel free to grab your phone or laptop tight, get the popcorn ready, and put your bestie on speed dial- because we’re about to spill everything babe.
