This space was created from a struggle of home and belonging. As a journalist tired of rules and constant convincing, and as someone living in a chosen exile away from home, I needed a space to write freely and to let others do the same. Home, identity, distance, and the feeling of not (fully) belonging shape my thoughts. Sawalif is an open invitation for anyone who wants to speak, to release what sits heavy in their chest, and to be heard, even anonymously.
