hi. this is me.

I think I accidentally gave myself too many lives to live.

There’s the version of me who wants to be a surgeon. Then there’s the lawyer, the detective, the politician, the Quran scholar, the polyglot, the surfer...

And then there’s the version who wants to disappear into a forest, live close to the wild, and spend her days around elephants and tigers.

Oh, and I also want a little house by the ocean.

So yes, I have a slight problem.

I have way too many ideas for one person to remember. Some stay as a “someday” thought in my head. Some make it into my notes. Some disappear and randomly come back months later. And somehow, some become actual projects.

I get curious about the smallest things. A word in another language. Why a flower means what it means. A random question that sends me down a rabbit hole for hours.

I want to learn because I genuinely enjoy learning. I want to understand the Quran, study psychology, speak different languages, stay healthy, read more, and keep discovering things I didn’t know yesterday.

And I almost forgot the forest.

I love elephants. I love tigers. I love the idea of living somewhere wild and simple, away from all the noise.

But I love the ocean just as much. I want to learn to surf and someday have a little house by the sea, with flowers, books and probably a notebook beside me because I’ll have another idea five minutes later.

I don’t know what all of this will become. Maybe that’s the fun part.

This is just my little corner for the things I’m curious about, the things I’m learning, and all the random ideas that refuse to leave my head.

Come wander around. Maybe you’ll find something that makes you curious too.

The bigger plan

Someday, I want to build institutions that last: businesses and non-profits that work together, so that doing good pays for itself, in education, healthcare, community development and human wellbeing.

why this site

Why Pages & Perspectives exists

This is where I keep track of all of it: projects, thoughts, days, questions. Some things here will be finished. Some will be works in progress. Some will just be thoughts I wanted somewhere to keep.

I'd rather show the figuring-out than wait until everything is polished.
