Born to a mixed family (Syrian-Czech) I sometimes find myself in situations when my standpoint is opposing the mainstream Western culture point of view. As our society is polarized in many important questions (ecology, immigration, politics) and we are flooded with immense stream of media coverage and reactions of individuals, I decided not to follow this fashion where often the only measure is the loudness of the utterance, and started to formulate my ideas and opinions through writing. They are there for all who want to read them. It gives me freedom not to restrict myself to things like 160 characters and to allow blending the areas of my studies and interests that are mainly natural sciences, philosophy and English culture and literature.
