Let's start fresh
Here’s a Glimpse of Me
Beginnings are hard.
Ever since I was a kid, I dreamed of writing blogs, but I always felt I wasn’t good enough. I worried that no one would read my work, that my words would simply get lost in the vast internet space. So, I never even attempted to begin. Yet, the dream of becoming a great writer always lived inside me.
I longed to craft beautiful stories like the ones I admired in Instagram captions, to pen novels and tales like the enchanting world of Harry Potter that captivated my childhood, and to pour out heartfelt poems like the famous poets of the past.
I’m someone who always feels the need to start something—a recipe blog, a space to share my thoughts, medium tech posts. Maybe an art page on Instagram, a photography side gig, or even launching a startup. But everything has its time, right? So here I am, finally putting my thoughts into words, starting something right here on Stack.
What will this space look like?
I’m not entirely sure yet. Maybe I’ll share stories of people I find interesting and inspiring. Maybe I’ll pour out my deep thoughts, random notes, mindless dreams, and quiet worries. Some days, I might write stories; other nights, it could be sad poems. And maybe, sometimes, I’ll just be here, reading the tales of others.
Perhaps this space will grow into a community, or maybe it will remain just a quiet corner of the internet. But for now, I’m inviting you to step into my small world, to peek into my thoughts, and to see where this journey takes us.
Introduction, maybe?
I’m Ameera, and if you ask me who I am, well—I’m still figuring that out. Born and raised in Kochi, Kerala, I spent my school years there and earned a computer science degree before moving to my dream city, Bangalore. I worked as a software QA engineer for over seven years, but eventually, I found the courage to quit and take a career break to upskill myself in software development. I dabbled in frontend work, but life, as it often does, led me down different paths again.
I’m the kind of person who always has a million things I want to do—travel, capture moments with my camera (or now, my Pixel), paint, draw, or dive into any form of art whenever I find the time. I’ve also accumulated a growing library of books, both physical and digital, that I may or may not get around to reading right away. Nature, hikes, plants, and all kinds of weather call to me. Music, too, is a mystery—there’s nothing I don’t like, just not all at once. Yet, melancholic and sad tunes always find a place near my heart.
And then, there’s Luna—my golden retriever, who’s as much a part of me as anything else. My love for animals, especially dogs, runs deep, like a thread woven into who I am.
Last year, I married my best friend, Richard, after six years of long distance. It's a story I could probably write a whole book about( but I won’t :P). I moved across half the world, with Luna in tow, to start a new chapter together in Tallinn, Estonia.
Life has been a whirlwind—filled with unfinished plans, unexpected turns, and a lot of growth. I’ll be honest—my anxiety about time, social interactions, and life in general is real. As an introvert, I sometimes struggle with socializing, and maybe I’ve forgotten how to do it since the pandemic. Sometimes I’m organized, other times a mess. But that’s me— full of contradictions, always in between.
Feel free to drop me a “hello”—I’d love to hear from you!
