I’m Dr. Krist Ewe—a Paediatrician, Infectious Diseases specialist, and Clinical Microbiologist. A husband and father. A dreamer. This is where my worlds meet:

  1. Bugged Out, where we demystify paediatric infections and microbiology;

  2. Kids EI, where we nurture emotional intelligence in children (and their grown-ups); and

  3. The Storybook Side, where rhyme, wonder, and childhood whimsy take centre stage.

Thoughtful. Practical. Occasionally poetic. Frequently chaotic. Always human.

Sometimes, I find myself running… on the roads and away from trouble.
