Flat Hunting
miaijita · Posted on December 9, 2020December 9, 2020

Lately I have been looking for a flat to buy in Berlin. Not only for investment, but something that I could use for myself. I know, I am adulting so hard right now. My reasoning is that instead of paying a monthly rental fee, I could use the money to shell out for mortgage. Initially, …

My Experience with Yoga Nidra
miaijita · Posted on December 8, 2020December 7, 2020

Lately I have been having a hard time falling asleep. I have already figured out the root cause: a combination of restless mind and late night strolling on Instagram. Last week I tried online Yoga Nidra for the first time. Yoga Nidra, also means yogic sleep, prompts the body to relax deeply while the mind …

No Inspiration
miaijita · Posted on December 7, 2020December 6, 2020

I have been having a hard time writing this post as I do not have any inspiration on what to write. There is a few topics that interest me at the time like financial freedom, artificial intelligence, and effective altruism, just to name a few. However, I was stuck when I started to write about …

Yes to Less
miaijita · Posted on December 6, 2020December 6, 2020

It wasn’t until I began to create more time for meditations, solo trips, long walks, and writing time that I realized I was an ambivert. On one hand, I am a very social person. On the other hand, I need to get away from people a little while every day too. I used to dedicate …

A friend recently asked me, “Do you feel at home in Berlin?”. This question caught me off guard. I am not sure if I ever feel at home in Berlin. I don’t think I have ever felt at home anywhere else in my life. Don’t Call Me “Cina” Growing up as a half-Chinese descent in …

To Volunteer or Not To Volunteer
miaijita · Posted on December 4, 2020December 3, 2020

I love the idea of volunteering. It makes me feel good doing good for others. Everytime there is a volunteering opportunity, I am always one of the first ones to jump on board. Teach math to disabled kids? I am down. Become a docent at a local museum? Sign me up. Prepare warm foods for …

Time Will Tell
miaijita · Posted on December 3, 2020December 3, 2020

A couple of months ago, my friend went on a date with a guy who she did not feel any sparks with. However, she thought to give him a shot. They went on a couple of dates and she was still feeling unsure whether to continue seeing him or not. On the other hand, the …

My Favorite German Idioms
miaijita · Posted on December 2, 2020December 3, 2020

Idioms make it easier for me to learn German because they are so much fun. I use it almost all the times, from answering emails at work to social gatherings. German language is so rich with idioms. I can always find German Idioms to describe any situation. Here are some of my favorites: When you …

Fasting
miaijita · Posted on December 1, 2020December 1, 2020

This week I am going to fast for a day. I am from Indonesia and it is common back home to fast for spiritual reasons. During Ramadan, every Muslim fasts for a month to practice self-discipline, self-control, sacrifice, and empathy for those who are less fortunate. My mom fasts twice a week when she has …

Berlin
miaijita · Posted on November 30, 2020November 30, 2020

A lot of people asked me why I like Berlin so much. I have been pondering the answer of this question. Berlin is definitely not the prettiest city in Europe, not even in Germany. The people are not the nicest. The infrastructure is not the most organized. Yet, I couldn’t picture myself living somewhere else …
