I am someone who loves to play with the balance between tradition and innovation. To fulfil my more futuristic side, I've studied Computer Science and Engineering, while to feed my traditional soul, I am in constant exploration of stories and cultures from all over the world. Travelling, learning languages, and writing are passions of mine which have always gone hand in hand with my interest in understanding different lifestyles; even my own.

Prishtina is an exciting city, in my opinion. It doesn't have the typical architectural beauty that draws you in at first glance, but just one day in it, and it shows its vibrant colours. Most people here are young and everyone here is incredibly generous, and this makes Prishtina, as a city, feel so alive and open to connections in a way that I haven't experienced anywhere else. The atmosphere and the way we make the most of the little things is truly special.

Someone once said to me, "Prishtina flows with trends", and it is such a profound sentence, because it is so true. I'd just like to add, "while its warmth remains constant" to it, because you see the latest fashion, music, coffee culture, art, technology development, and whatnot, parade and beautify the streets of Prishtina, and at the same time, the warmth I feel in each corner I see and conversation I have with a Prishtinas, never changes. It is a city that makes me fully experience every second of my life, the bad and the good alike, and I believe if allowed, it is a life-changing spot for anyone who crosses its path.
