About the blog

This blog will talk about current events, controversial topics and different life experiences from the perspective of a woman who is caught between the eastern culture, which she grew up in, and the western culture, which she lives in. While she tries to experience her own culture as an outsider, she tries to experience the other culture as an insider, believing that she will find her true identity in-between.
