With the year coming to an end, I find myself looking back at the books I spent time with over the past months. While 2024 was strongly focused on reading connected to the course I was taking, 2025 leaned much more toward fiction and adventure.

What an intense month… October started with travel and excitement, then turned into 2 weeks at home on a sick leave, before picking up again with gentle, autumn vibes.

This summer, I allowed myself to be surprised. To some extent :) I had planned a few short trips, giving myself something to look forward to amidst a heavy workload. But once those trips began, I made a conscious effort to be fully present — to sink into each moment and truly enjoy every day.
