What else?

Susanna loves discussing societal issues and has to be careful she doesn’t spend her weekends talking about structural problems. Her preferred forms of everyday escapism are browsing memes, doing sports and frequenting cultural events. Susanna is inspired by the visuality in everyday life and situation comedy.

Susanna believes that in a political discussion, you also need the ability to envision utopias.
