After a hiatus in research, I am going back to academia as a PhD candidate in Hamburg Universität.

Sociolinguistics, queer studies & migration.

Colombian-German currently researching integration of Latinx nurses in Germany.

🌈
Yesterday at @uni-hamburg.de , we had the opportunity to see the result of a two-month analysis of literacy exams in Germany, resulting in the Language Skills and Self-Assessment - LiDS Lunch Lecture.

Introducing this week’s reading 🤗

Today, watching the lecture Linguistic Diversity and Social Participation with Prof. Dr. Ingrid Piller. It’s inspiring to see where this work had led to not only the creation of responsible research communities but has also generated impact on the lives of participant and language perception.

At your service, for your memories.

As a non-programmer, this gave me hope to think about the possibility of approaching this field from my curious perspective on language development and how I might have a stronger base than I thought.

Just learned about the Polish cemetery in Tehran: ~2,000 graves of WWII refugees. Families divided not only by displacement, but even in death — women who married Iranian men were buried separately due to religion.

Wishing to go back to those days in May.

Beautiful Hamburg. My home.

With a population of 1.862.565 people, 390.000 are immigrants, with the biggest groups being Türkiye and Ukraine.

So I found myself lost in this audiobook just in the moment I am starting the writing process of my thesis and conceiving the idea of… writing?

Depicting the life of a woman diving into success in the editorial world through some unconventional methods.

It’s a good break from academic reading 💛

My breakfast took a turn today as I listened to @karenstollznow.bsky.social ’s interview on the New Books in Language podcast about the evolution of one of my favorite words — apparently more academic than one might think. 👠 LINK: podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/n...
