About me.

Hello! My name is Viola Sutanto. Creative entrepreneur. Curious being. Weaver of images and words. I believe stories are what connect us all as human beings. Journaling is my tool to chronicle these stories.

I started journaling since I was 8, and it has helped me to find clarity through some of the most challenging events in my life, both personally and professionally. To say journaling has transformed my life is not an understatement.

I don’t believe you have to be a writer in order to start journaling. Journaling is defined as chronicling observations, thoughts or occurrences. For me, those chronicles come in the form of writing, illustrating, photographing, or sometimes a combination of all.

I do believe, however that we all have worthy stories to tell. Sometimes we just need a little nudge to find our unique voices. We are all inherently creative, expressed in a multitude of ways. Journaling brings forth these gifts, and provide the clarity you need to move forward with confidence. If nothing else, it is just plain fun!

At the heart of every adventure I embark upon, I have always felt that an open mind and curiosity is crucial to growth. 

chewing the cud is a love letter to all the dreamers and doers out there. This is where  I chronicle my journaling process, tips and ideas. I hope you will join me.

Welcome to my playground.
