This is one funky interview! We had so much fun in the studio with Irene Wong, as she turned out to be one of those guests who gives the most surprising and "out of the box" answers to rather standard questions.

Besides being hilarious and entertaining, Irene Wang is the founder and the owner of the internet shop handwritings.dk, that won this year Nordic Planner Society Award for the best online shop.  

Handwritings.dk offers - amongst others - everything you need to have in order to start journaling. And it’s interesting, because one may wonder: in the era of smartphones, tablets and digital communication, is writing things “by hand” even a thing anymore?
