I am
Madalina Komninos
Reflecting back on what I have learned about myself,
becoming aware of my feelings, about who I am, who I feel I am, I decided to go outside my comfort zone and embrace this emotional journey of writing.
I’ve been living my life with a dream about me making visible my writings. There was always an image next to me, a parallel story. Sometimes there was a poem, short-story or a long one, different reflections, a deep instinct that was calling me, that was leading myself and my words down to a notebook to give life to these thoughts.
I decided to follow my dreams, discover myself and grow in this direction.
While I am asking myself who am I, my heart is fulfilled and comfortable when I dare to say “I am a writer”. I am a storyteller, intuitive writer.
I’m a Romanian woman living in Greece, a wife and mother of three.
My daily life is woven with love, responsibility, and constant transformation. These experiences, both ordinary and extraordinary, are what fuel my creativity and give meaning to my dreams.
I love to travel, learn and always discover new experiences, which inspires me more. I feel like I can walk closer to my inner voice and understand better the stories that are waiting to be written down.
One of my favorite places to be, where I always get inspired and find myself, where I am able to listen to myself and not get distracted is under the sea, as one of my biggest hobbies is diving.
Another part of me finds expression through cooking and baking, a deep passion I carry with joy.
For me, food is not just nourishment, but memory, culture, and connection.
My kitchen is often filled with flavors and aromas from all around the world, inspired by my travels, the books I read, and my deep curiosity about cultures and cuisines.
From Mediterranean dishes and Middle Eastern spices to Asian comfort food or reinterpretations of traditional Romanian recipes, each creation carries a piece of story, soul, and exploration.
I dream of sharing these moments through vlogging, as a way to celebrate everyday beauty, family, and the universal language of food.
I would like letting you know about some interests of mine, maybe you would find what we might have in common:
painting, traveling, music, film, dancing, gardening, crafting, sculpture, reading, book collecting, nature photography, sailing, comedy.
With that said, I’ll end this short introduction by sharing a few of the things that color my world and inspire my creativity perhaps some of them will resonate with you too.
Brushstrokes on canvas, pages of old books, the rhythm of music, the freedom of travel, the silence of gardens, the joy of dancing, the scent of handmade creations, the beauty of sculpture, and the magic of nature through a camera lens.
I also love sailing, collecting books, watching meaningful films, enjoying powerful theatre performances, and laughing wholeheartedly at a good comedy.
These moments and passions feed my imagination, bringing life and depth to the stories I write and the world I share.
