The site should not force an artificial split where professional identity erases everything else. Travel and downtime often shape how people sustain curiosity and avoid flattening their life into pure output.
This category gives you a place for lighter writing that still belongs on the same domain. It helps the site feel personal, not corporate.
That balance also makes the more technical sections stronger because they exist inside a fuller picture of who you are.
This is a good place for shorter essays that do not belong in a strict career blog but still matter to the overall site.
