People I’m glad to know

The internet is better when it points outward. This is a small and necessarily incomplete list of people I’m glad to know, learn from, and send others toward — plus one place that feels a little like a friend.

In no particular order.

Simon Alexander Ong

A past guest on Escape 9 to 5 and a fellow traveller I met along the creative journey — someone whose work asks how we can build lives that feel both purposeful and energizing.

Nick Gray

I first met Nick through Interesting People 3. He treats friendship and hosting as practical crafts — and this page is entirely his fault.

Krishana Agarwal

When I was running the BSCT Kickstarter, Krishana made space for my flyer at Kasa Café. It was a small act of generosity at exactly the moment small acts mattered.

Roume

A product designer and manager turned pianist whom I met in Lisbon, usually accompanied by two impossibly cute Shibas.

Giulio Michelon

A fellow podcaster I met at Interesting People 3, following the wonderfully persistent question of what really moves the needle.

A place that feels like a friend

Lotus Realm

My London refuge for tea, focused work, and the spontaneous conversations that make a city feel more like home.

This is a /friends page, inspired by slashfriends.org and Nick Gray.
