Hi, I’m Shari.
I was born and raised in Malaysia and now live in Hungary with my family.
I’m mostly self-taught in the things I do for fun. I read, learn languages, make little websites and digital projects, and occasionally pick up some new interest simply because I want to see where it goes. I’m not necessarily brilliant at all of these things, but that has never stopped me from enjoying them.
I’ve been making little corners of the internet for a long time. My first blog was on Blogspot back in 2003, and I’ve drifted in and out of blogging ever since.
I’m not a coder or programmer, and I don’t run a business. Shari Creates exists simply because I like having a space of my own on the internet.
For me, a personal website is an outlet — somewhere to write about the books I read, the languages I’m learning, things I make, and whatever else happens to be on my mind. If someone happens to find something here interesting, useful or worth reading, all the better.
A lot of what I make starts with curiosity rather than expertise. I’m not an expert in most of the things I make. I’m simply curious enough to learn what I need, try things, and see where an idea takes me.
Sometimes that becomes a small printable or an HTML experiment. Sometimes it grows into something much bigger.
This site is simply a record of those things: what I’m reading, learning, making and thinking about along the way.
