Seems ironic how my profession involves creating modern and complex websites, yet I have a blog that literally uses the default theme of WordPress.

I only have one plugin so far, and that’s Yoast SEO, obviously for SEO purposes.

But other than that, I don’t have any content rather than the posts I’m writing.

It’s good to retreat sometimes.

Going back to the basics.

Finding where I’m lacking.

Finding the flow.

It’s truly liberating to just let out all of what’s on your mind.

I used to install a lot of plugins when I build a website, Elementor, Astra, Custom Post Types, ACF fields, you name it.

But now, I decided to start with the basics and let my writing flow out.

It’s exciting.

Hey there, my name is Mike.

Crazy how many times I have introduced myself to the web over the last few years.

I think I have spent the last decade typing and creating stuff that involves the internet and I’m happy to be still sitting here typing the same stuff.

I am a web designer and UI/UX designer.

I have to wear many hats because the freelance marketplace is now saturated with a lot of people with various skills and expertise to offer.

Now I’m trying to start all over again. Back to where I found myself tinkering over writing and designing.

Back to my old self where I find joy in the little things.
