What’s roammora?
Roammora is for people thinking seriously about movement, freedom, and belonging — and discovering that the question of where to live is never just about geography.
It’s about access.
It’s about permission.
It’s about the systems that quietly shape who gets to choose, who has to stay, and what it costs to want something different.
This newsletter explores those questions through personal essays and cultural analysis, without pretending there are easy answers or universal solutions.
What you’ll find here
Roammora isn’t a travel guide or a how-to manual.
You won’t find packing lists, productivity hacks, or instructions for “escaping” your life.
Instead, you’ll find writing that sits in the uncomfortable middle — between stability and mobility, between staying and leaving, between what works and what keeps calling.
Some essays are personal.
Some look outward at borders, institutions, and inequality.
Most are about the emotional reality behind choice — especially in a world where freedom is unevenly distributed.
Who this is for
This is for people who:
feel torn between staying somewhere that works and leaving for something they can’t fully explain
are curious about life elsewhere, but honest about fear, responsibility, and constraint
want to think clearly before making a big decision — not be talked into one
You don’t have to be planning a move.
You don’t have to be able to move at all.
You could have already moved and are thinking about somewhere new.
If the question keeps showing up in your life, you’re in the right place.
Stay up-to-date
Roammora is written by someone who has spent years thinking about movement — not just as a possibility, but as a privilege shaped by borders, money, timing, and luck.
The writing here comes from living inside that tension, not standing above it.
