All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

About me
Hi, I’m a 18 year old socialist and high school student with an immense interest in politics, especially international politics. Since I was a young boy growing up in rural Denmark I’ve been interested in finding an answer to why our world is the way it is, and I believe the best way to explain this is by looking at the global politics of the world, and the history behind it. My dream is to one day work with politics on an international level, maybe as a diplomat at an embassy or at the United Nations. It’s good to dream and that is the main reason i started this blog and also why I chose to start off with a quote by T.E. Lawrence. I’m especially interested in the politics of the Middle East, but I try my best to keep up to date with politics all over the world, and I’m genuinely super exited for the American primaries.
I like to take photographs and will there use my own photographs whenever it seems like it fits. This could be photos from my trip to China if I’m discussing something about China etc.
About the blog
The blog will be portraying my personal views and opinions, but that doesn’t mean i wouldn’t like to hear other peoples views. I feel that the blog being subjective will make it easier for me to stand out from the rest, and also make it much easier for me to make content. I’ll write whenever I feel like there is a political subject I want to publish my take on. This could be everything from the general elections in New Zealand in September to the conflict in the Sahel region of Africa and everything in between.
