The idea of making my blog took hold after I discovered Kagi Small Web. I saw it on the front page of hacker news a few days ago and loved exploring the blogs of strangers I would have never seen otherwise. There were posts about tech, art, history, traveling and AI.

I’ve always valued, perhaps more than I should, the subjective yet authentic facts. In a world burdened with paid reviews and astroturfing, an anecdote from a friend can weigh the same as a thousand five-star ratings, if not more. This relates to the value of a blog. When a post is written, not to sell, but merely to share a lived experience, it is precious.
