The Copenhagen Interpretation of Me
Navigating multiple realities in a city of contradictions
“The Copenhagen Interpretation is sometimes called “model agnosticism” and holds that any grid we use to organize our experience of the world is a model of the world and should not be confused with the world itself. Alfred Korzybski, the semanticist, tried to popularize this outside physics with the slogan, “The map is not the territory.” Alan Watts, a talented exegete of Oriental philosophy, restated it more vividly as “The menu is not the meal.”

Copenhagen was like a hug
The city was always welcoming me back in its tentacles, sucking out the ideas out of me for my future aspirations.
From CBS to City Nights
Copenhagen was like a huge mansion full of opportunities and a variety of living styles. They all converged into the Danish hygge and certain iridescent hues, which would trick the eye continuously. I always had the feeling I was simply passing by. I moved so many times while I was living in this city that I felt most at home on the streets, wandering, feeling the vibe of the pedestrian routes, civilized and with so many quirky stories at the same time.
