Hi guys!
Sorry I haven’t been posting much on Tumblr recently, I’ve been busy since I came to Japan and I didn’t have time to write any longer thought-pieces yet. I have, however, been posting on Twitter a lot because I feel like it’s better suited to the sort of content I can deliver now. So let me leave a few links to some of my recent Twitter threads, and I hope you find them interesting!
