I’m Fragkiska Megaloudi — a writer, and communication specialist who has spent much of the past twenty years living and working in different parts of the world, from the Sahel to Southeast Asia. My work has taken me to places most people only hear about in the news — but I’ve always been more interested in the lives behind the headlines.

I write because I believe in the quiet power of everyday stories. My memoir, In the Land of Kim – Two Years in North Korea, is a reflection of that: a personal account of life inside one of the most less known countries in the world, told not with judgment, but with curiosity and care.

I’m drawn to stories that make us see differently — more humanly — and I hope that’s what readers will find in my work.

“..The world had a choice: deliver aid or hold out for political concessions...
For many governments, especially the United States, that choice was never simple. Humanitarian intentions clashed with geopolitical strategy.
Food aid is never just about food. It can be a gesture of goodwill—or a tool of pressure. In the case of North Korea, it became both.
....The delay was more than just bureaucracy...By holding back humanitarian aid,... Western powers hoped to provoke internal unrest—believing that a weakened population might rise against its government.
At the same time, these same governments framed their caution as a principled stand against nuclear aggression. In the media, the narrative was one of firmness and responsibility: refusing to feed a regime that posed a global threat.
But behind this framing, thousands were dying...”
