I guess you could say I’m a story teller. If I was alive in the 1400’s (and I can’t be sure I wasn’t), I would have been that weird woman dressed in colourful fabrics who travelled through the land and told stories at the market place or at royal courts. That, or a witch, or both. I’ve often felt like I do not truly belong in this world, and that I may come from a different planet. Nonetheless, I quite like it here. The human experience is an interesting one. I love dancing, swimming, making videos and writing the most. I feel complete with a pen in my hand. And if what I do can inspire, move or teach something to others, I’m a happy woman.
About my blog
I believe writing to be one of the most multi-functional types of art. I get to process my feelings, share my emotions with people who might be in similar situations and simultaneously work on my craft. Seven years ago, I started this website with the Heartbreak Blog, after I broke up with someone I had thought of as the love of my life. After much processing and many entries, I was ready to start a new category: Self-Love, posts in which I try to break down the abstract concept of loving oneself. Since then, I’ve added Personal Tea and the Yearning Journals. And who knows what other topics I will come up with next. The unifying theme will always be Tea Time With Amber, since I want this to be a safe space where you can come listen to my stories with a cup of your favourite tea. Won’t you join me?
