About Us

“The best way to find out what we really need is to get rid of what we don’t.” —Marie Kondo

Welcome to our side of the internet, where we share real stories over coffee or tea! As 30-somethings who have lived in different countries and immersed in diverse cultures, we’re here to exchange experiences, tell our tales, and share the lessons. 

We’re all about open conversations. From major topics such as managing career shifts, finding out our “whys”, forming new relationships, getting over an old flame, or even as minor as choosing dinner or what to wear, we’ve been there. We know the feeling. It’s not always breezy but hey, we live to tell the tale. And many tales we have! 

Growing Up Diaries is your space. Consider this as your Room for Requirement. As major Potterheads ourselves, we’d like you to think of this blog whenever you need something- be it advice, fresh perspective, room to breathe or just a platform for your late night droomscrollong. 

We may not have all the answers but we’ll be here to swap stories and try to make sense of things together. After all, things are better when shared with friends (no matter the distance, however the means!).
