Our journal is worthy and precious because it is the archive of our thoughts and feelings through every stage of our lives—a mirror of how we've grown through thick and thin throughout the years.
Self-care doesn't have to be expensive. It's not only about 'the treat'—but also about how we treat ourselves. I believe that self-care is not only about having fun. It also takes discipline and patience.
I haven't been writing a lot these past two years. I haven't been sharing a lot as well. I didn't have the mental capacity to do so. Moving to Amsterdam during the pandemic—with lockdowns and curfews, far from friends and families, didn't sit well with me. I was sad most of the time. Angry, other times.
I am an Indonesian writer/artist/illustrator and stationery web shop owner (Cafe Analog) based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I love facilitating writing/creative workshops and retreats, especially when they are tied to self-exploration and self-expression. In Indonesian, 'beradadisini' means being here. So, here I am, documenting life—one word at a time.
