One of my goals in 2026 was to write something. Anything. Just to write.

Going to live performances often stirs a deep feeling in me. So here I am, writing about what I experienced, and the quiet ways culture impacts my inner world.

Along the way, I've discovered something I didn't expect. Writing hasn't just helped me remember and hold on to these moments. It has helped me process complex thoughts and think more clearly. About more than just art.

But for now, here you can find my Amsterdam-based (mostly) dispatches on the art and culture that struck a chord. For a list of all live events I attend, including shorter, unedited takes, have a look at my ledger.
