Sweet But Salty

katarina vila

Welcome to Sweet But Salty 🖤 the bliss point of podcasts

hosted by katarina vila (that’s me), pro word-player, aesthete and defluencer in the making. The title is literally what you get — the right amount of unfiltered sarcasm, deep talks, artsy and scientific smattering, awkwardly funny stories, and things I’ve learned… or not. I don’t sugarcoat things, I add salt to them 🖤

    310. my odyssey

    When I am recording this, I am one day out from watching the odyssey, which just makes me realize how much of an odyssey we all go through in life. The movie actually has me reminiscing back to old days half of my life ago, when I was in the US and had to read Homer for the first time in old English. Years later, like a thread woven by the gods of fate, it was a story from the odyssey that was being researched at my student job in empirical aesthetics. Now, I am about to watch the movie with a dear friend of mine, I share a very special story with. This goes to show that you sometimes get to experience full circle moments… and I believe life is one big full circle moment where it all comes together in the end (in a good way, in the best way possible, in fact).
