Trying to grab time
If you had to explain what ‘time’ is, how would you do it? Well, you would start by saying that time is measured and that we have clocks to tell us what time it is. We have years, which are divided into months, weeks, days, minutes, seconds and so on. Perhaps you would mention that…

Why are we so obsessed with labels?
The shirt you’re wearing is 80% acrylic, 20% cotton. The online test told you that you’re 80% extrovert, 20% introvert. Are we really that simple?

Each decision we make, and every step we…

Never forget that you are happiest only at home
This title is not just a simple verse from a song by the beautiful Nina Spirova. This verse is a motto and value. However, reality can often be different. In her song “Speak of Skopje” she tells us how much we talk about loving our “home”. No matter what it means to us, the reality…
