Hello.

My name is Petra and I was born on Friday, the 31st of October.

Halloween night. Back then, it was a quieter affair, tucked snugly before All Saints’ Day on November 1st. There’s a quirky rhythm to it all: Friday, Halloween, All Saints... Friday the 13th’s understated sibling. My birth chart’s a spicy trio, too: Scorpio Sun, Libra Moon, Scorpio Ascendant.

I’m energised by the mix of different cultures, the thrill of the unknown, and the tug-of-war between wanting stability and staying restless. I’m inspired by beauty, nature, and all things unusual, and I enjoy talking about design, sustainability, sports, and how our world keeps changing.

I write—about travels, tastes, love (especially the blurry, tipsy kind), and the kaleidoscope of human connection.

Since that Halloween Friday, change has been my only constant.

Thanks for stopping by. Be kind, okay?

Petra
