Conversations with Cities (Lava Publishing House, 2026) is a poetic graphic novel, a dialogue between a traveller and their companions: the cities they have loved. Each city is portrayed as a soulful being, a friend with its own voice, moods, and secrets.
Shaped by a life of travelling the world and finding new homes, I’ve learned to see cities differently, each carrying its own memory, rhythm, and personality.
Through words and my illustrations, these dialogues with thirty cities, with portraits, explore faith, fear, longing, and the fragile beauty of belonging. It is both a travelogue of places and an inner map of emotions, tracing the ways cities shape us, and how we speak back to them.
In moving from city to city, I’ve learned their language. This book is my conversation with them.

Book Launches and Conversations
Since its release, Conversations with Cities has travelled beyond its pages, becoming a series of conversations of its own.
Through presentations, readings, and dialogues with audiences in Tirana and Stockholm, I’ve had the chance to share the stories behind the book, its illustrations, and the cities that inspired it, and to hear the memories, questions, and reflections they awaken in others.

Barnens Flora (The Childrens Flora)
Barnens Flora (The Children’s Flora) began as my high school project, where I built my own business and self-published an educational book for children about how their environment grows, from flowers to trees, across all seasons. Over the course of a full year, I photographed plants at every stage of growth, ensuring the book’s educational purpose was fully realized.
Sharing these images with children aged 5–11, I was inspired by their comments and curiosity to write short stories about each flower - its name, where it grows, and other useful, fun facts. I also created a memory game to help them learn about the plants and their cycles in an engaging way.
The result was a colourful, hardback book made from durable, water-resistant material, easy for children to carry outdoors and explore nature hands-on.
The book was a success, selling out three series to schools and libraries across Gävleborg, Sweden. A new edition will be released in 2026.
