You said you feel hot. Elaborate on this feeling.Yeah, so, it’s the first summer since I’m cancer-free. My hemoglobin was so low I had to do three blood transfusions. For the past two years, I was always feeling cold. But now I’m back to feeling normal weather, so I feel hot. And that’s good. ReallyContinue reading “Erika”

“I’m here,” she texted me.I stood across the one-lane street from a six-storey white Bauhaus building, fronted by a tidy stretch of greenery and a low stone fence with metal mesh between the pillars. It was warm and sunny—one of those beautiful spring days.“I don’t see you,” I replied.I crossed the street and saw aContinue reading “Luca Kristof”
Kira Keller
A glass vintage German teapot with green tea and two cups sat between us.“You said you were ignoring your needs—what kind of needs?” I asked.“To… what are my needs?

But when I finally sit down and try to face my true self, I feel lost.” “What exactly makes you feel lost?” I asked.“I don’t know who IContinue reading “Megan”
Inside me
If I recall correctly, it was the first interview I conducted in a tattoo studio. It took place in Berlin at the end of August 2023. She and I settled onto a black sofa tucked into the far corner of the studio. The air buzzed with the hum of tattoo machines, loud pop music, andContinue reading “Inside me”
Alina Krasina
“What moment from the past do you remember as the most beautiful?” I asked her.“There are so many. My life is made up of beautiful moments. I think it’s my specialty—being a profoundly happy person. Even in times of difficulty, devastation, or pain, I can find beauty. When the puzzle pieces fall into place overContinue reading “Alina Krasina”
Camille
“How do you feel?” I asked her.“I’m excited to talk with you,” she said with a laugh. “And there’s your dog! I’m always happy when I see a dog.” “What does happiness mean to you?”“It’s that feeling when you don’t need or want anything more than what you already have. When I’m happy, I can’tContinue reading “Camille”
