Hello, I’m Zinzy, an Afropean mid-range millennial in Amsterdam drawn to complex puzzles and good stories. I’m a diary-keeper, and a design researcher of twenty years working in medical technology. This is a loose-leaf collection of unfinished throughts, lived experiences, and critical notes on the things I hold dear. Go explore, sign my guestbook or say hello.

There is something particularly nice about the way my body feels after I come back from a gym workout today. Not in a protein shake, alpha masculine type of way that lingers towards more control, more pushing, more goal-setting, more “if only I would…”. Rather, it is a softening of the posture I take in relation to my body. Thank you, thank God, for being here. Across every thing I have experienced, you have always been here, the only constant. Sorry for my lack of interest, my conscious and subconscious dissociation from you. What do you need? That is healing today.
