About Maria
Where the bustling streets meet the glittering skyline, that’s where I came from – the city of lights, Karachi, Pakistan. My footsteps in Germany are lit up by the pursuit of a master’s degree – a dream I have been chasing long before I set foot in this beautiful country. My passion for exploring new cultures and ideas is what brought me here. It was in the year 2020 that I took my first steps into the world of blogging, and since then, it has been a captivating voyage of words and ideas. When I’m not hitting on the writing tasks or doing assignments, I love to curl up with a good book and a cup of Chai, the ultimate comfort combo. These simple pleasures keep me grounded and inspire me to infuse creativity into my everyday life. As a proud ’90s kid, I still find joy in the timeless classics of radio and television. There’s something about nostalgia that takes me back to the good old days. But that’s not all – I’m also a seasoned debater, and there’s nothing quite like the thrill of persuading my peers with my opinions. Before embarking on my master’s journey in Germany, I worked full-time for 2+ years in media and had the opportunity to explore this fascinating world. Aside from my academic work, I also enjoy writing scripts for blogs, crafting captivating headlines for Instagram posts, designing graphical content, and sometimes working on my German language skills. So come along with me as we explore the exciting world of a student in Germany, together.
