Just as media cannot be defined simply as good or bad, my feelings for media cannot be determined simply by liking or disliking it. The ego in the digital world based on the data uploaded by ourselves can make us either happy or unhappy. In my personal opinion, it’s complicated because the media has permeated …

I heart my Media. Or do I?
For me media is not Instagram or Twitter or Snapchat, it´s the people on these platforms. I like the possibilities it holds within; for my sake or for others. I would lie if I said that I don´t love my media. The videos I watch, the people I see, the music I listen to. However, …

My second language is French as I grew up in a mainly French speaking country (Luxembourg) and attended a French school. My third language …

The Dangers of Tinder in Croatia
This is not a story about how I almost got murdered on my trip through Croatia. This is the story of how I found love through media. Earlier this year, I spontaneously packed my stuff, grabbed my best friend and went on a trip through Eastern Europe with her. As the weeks passed, we found …
Media are not even that bad Before sitting down to my laptop and actually starting to write about what relationship I have with my media, I thought that I could only talk about its’ negative side. How insecure those perfect Instagram photos of others can make me feel. How sad I can be when I …
