About me : Jahida!

Wait… shouldn't this have been the first post? But if you’ve read my first post, you already know I don’t always follow the rules - or timelines and logic hehe!

Hey there! I’m Jahida.

I’m originally from Panjsher, Afghanistan - born in Kabul, where my earliest memories were made.
My childhood is a collage of rich moments with my family and the warmth of my homeland and those moments are still with me today. I have vivid memories of those days... so clear that they almost seem unreal for a kid to remember. It's something I’d love to share more about in another post!

Life’s taken me down some fascinating paths since then. I’ve lived in different places, experienced all kinds of cultures and gone through moments that shaped who I am today. Growing up in Delhi was a world of its own...one that added layers to my perspective on life. It’s shaped how I view the world today.
Now, I live in France...another chapter that’s added its own flavor to my journey.

Along the way, something that’s stayed constant is the way I see the world...still endlessly inspired by everything around me.
I try to find beauty in the most ordinary things, because life is magic...Like, I could be on a plane for the tenth time and still sit there in awe like, “Wait, we’re flyingggg!!” Or I’ll get stuck staring at a ray of light falling on the wall and thinking it’s the most beautiful thing ever. That’s just how my mind works...always looking at things a little differently.

As for this blog...there’s no big agenda here. I’m not trying to teach anything or preach anything. I just want to write.
Share. Reflect.
If something here makes you smile, feel inspired or even just think, “ahh, same!” then I’m glad you’re here.
