Suit says to me before a conference panel (while trying to hand me his phone): Excuse me, could you find somewhere to charge my phone? ME: Erm, no (as I walk on stage to moderate a panel) #womenareintheindustrytoo

Let’s be treated equally, admired, paid fairly, appreciated, given a seat at the table, respected everyday. Happy international women’s day.

I started my career in journalism at the now defunct Financial Times Deutschland, owned by G+J. When they shut it down, I remember thinking — digitalisation! There was no investment. 11 yrs later, it seems they’ve fallen victim again to that same lack of investment. What a shame

We live in Hansaviertel, Berlin’s smallest district. It was almost fully destroyed in WWII but in 1956 the area was rebuilt by architects incl Gropius, Aalto & Niemeyer. Groups tour here daily & I’m reminded how lucky I am to live in this unique postwar modernist housing project

Did you know Pakistan ranks eighth among countries most vulnerable to the climate crisis despite its less than 1 percent contribution to global carbon emissions, according to the Climate Change Risk Index 2021?
Floods in Pakistan have killed over 1,000 people and destroyed nearly 300,000 homes. Heavy rainfall from monsoon rains, and melting glaciers brought on by the climate crisis, have left entire villages underwater.

My insignificance as a cub reporter was such that I didn’t even get my name on on the business card #tts
