Hi there, let me take you virtually on my staycation journey. Lahore wasn’t on the calendar. It was a “hey, let’s go” at 20 minutes’ notice because my husband had a meeting there, and I said yes before my brain could catch up. I’ve been visiting Punjab forever, but somehow never really explored Lahore. This…
I didn’t grow up knowing anything about skincare. As a teen, I only knew moisturizer, because my skin was desert-dry and it hurt if I skipped it. My friends weren’t into routines, there wasn’t much social media, and brands weren’t everywhere, so… no clue. Then my early 20s arrived, and my skin said surprise. Breakouts….
Hey, You found Maryammy. I’m Maryam, and this is where I think out loud – mostly unedited, always honest, very human.We’re going to have real conversations here. Some days, I’ll share a story from work or writing. Other days, it’s daily life, relationships that teach more than they promise, food that made me pause, a…
Instagram is one of the most influential and growing social media platforms for sharing your story, building your brand, and promoting your business digitally. However, with so many users and so much content in different areas, it can be challenging to stand out from the crowd. The key to success on Instagram is to have…
Stranger Things Season 5 trailers got me. Again. I swear, every time I think I’ve moved on, they drop a few seconds of Eleven looking intense, or the gang staring into some ominous red sky, and I’m right back in Hawkins. Season 5 is around the corner, and honestly, I can’t wait. But at the…
Snapchat just went dark, and the internet lost its mind. Millions of users suddenly couldn’t log in, send snaps, or open chats. Searches like “is Snapchat down today” and “why is Snapchat not working” exploded on Downdetector, showing global spikes from Pakistan to the US. Turns out, Snapchat wasn’t the only one hit. The outage…

I’m loyal to one tiny hero: travel dispensers. They let me carry my real skincare in small bottles that fit in my handbag. Facewash, moisturizer, sunscreen, everything done. No more giant tubes. No more hotel minis that break me out. This started on a flight when carry-on rules wouldn’t let my full sizes through. I…
I used to think my plans were the main character. If I worked hard, prayed hard, and scheduled my life like a color-coded spreadsheet, things should land exactly when I wanted them. And when they didn’t? I’d spiral. Why not now? Why not me? Why is this door still not opening? Here’s what I’m learning,…
I’ve never been a early morning person. Night is my love language; quiet, slow, nobody asking for anything. I could stay up forever just for that hush. Then I married an even bigger night person. My husband basically has a whole social life at 2 a.m. He’ll be answering emails, designing, planning… meanwhile I’m next…
