Welcome
My name's Golnaz Mohammadi
I have studied English Literature, and I tend to read and write about almost anything related to Humanities. It has been a few years since I have realized the value of digital content creation and after taking a few courses and gaining some experience writing for a few employers I decided to go freelance and set up my own website. So, here I am, a content creator. I try to combine the concepts of humanities and storytelling and create content about literature, culture, art, books, movies, history, and more. I am also a certified EFL instructor and a translator. So far I have translated a few books from English into my mother tongue (Persian) and Published 3 short stories, again in Persian. My interests are diverse and I have a voracious appetite for learning new things. I hope I can offer you an enjoyable time on my blog.

To better illustrate these changes, I would like to turn to popular culture, where films often reflect and shape our perceptions of societal shifts. Three films that poignantly capture the evolution of relationships in the internet age are You’ve Got Mail (1998), The Social Network (2010), and Her (2013). Each of these movies provides a unique lens through which we can examine the changing dynamics of love in the digital age and the overall impact of the Internet on relationships.
