It all began with a simple need: to capture and document the chaos of my mind that I call it sometimes ¨the monkey mind¨to a more organized and creative one. Jotting down my special moments of thoughts, experiences, and insights intrigued me, not just as a record but as a platform for expression.
The Why Behind: What a beautiful way to see my thoughts come to life in words. I realized that my mind was constantly swirling with ideas, questions, and reflections, and they needed a place to land. This blog became that place – a home for all the things that mattered to me.
It is a mix of professional and personal journals describing its tittle ¨A Mug of Things¨. I’m putting into this mug the experiences of work, and life, whether big or small, shape who I am. Whether talking about a significant event or just the moment that makes up a day, capturing those stories lets me pause, reflect, and connect with the emotions behind them. It is also where I can track my growth, celebrate the highs, and acknowledge the lows. It is a space that allows me to be fully present with my thoughts. And while journaling can be a deeply personal act, I’ve found that sharing it with others who are interested in, can spark conversations, inspire, and sometimes even help someone else on a similar journey.
Cooking as a Creative Outlet: Over the years I’ve realized that I enjoy cooking very much and the kitchen has always been a place where I feel relaxed. It is a space where I can experiment, create, and enjoy the process. Writing and sharing it with others helps me savor those moments. You will find my recipes for various dishes in ¨La Cuina¨ which in Catalan means ¨The Kitchen¨.
Enjoy writing and reading!
