Rostrum

I am a software engineer with a fascination for the past and how it connects to our present world. This blog is a playground for exploring those connections, as well as a launchpad for delving into anything that I find interesting, be it languages, politics etc. While I am not a professional historian (or an expert in many of the fields I explore!), I am an enthusiastic reader and learner, so consider my takes as engaging conversation starters.
