Hi there! I am a Visual Editor at Bored Panda. My job is to ensure that all the articles are aesthetically pleasing. I get to work with a variety of topics ranging from all the relationship drama to lots and lots of memes and, my personal favorites, funny cute cats. When I am not perfecting the images, you can find me reading with a cup of matcha latte and a cat in my lap, taking photos (of my cat), getting lost in the forest, or simply cuddling with my cat... Did I mention that I love cats?
Louise Pieterse

I'd love to say I love to read and hike. But those are lies. You can most probably find me behind the stove (not because I am a woman), working on my TikTok-induced carpal tunnel, or trying yet another craft project.Exported from South Africa and landed in Spain. For now...

Hidrėlėy
Approved Contributor
I love writing about cats, dogs, inspiring stories, talented artists, and incredible photographers. One of the things I love most about my work is discovering people, projects, and stories that deserve to be seen - and having the honor of introducing them to readers around the world. That’s what makes Bored Panda so special to me: it can turn a small story, a photograph, or the work of a little-known artist into something seen, shared, and appreciated by millions of people. Being part of that bridge between those who create and those on the other side of the world ready to be inspired is a privilege. I only have one complaint: days should have 48 hours. There are too many stories to discover, too many talents to meet, and a whole world of incredible things I still want to share. 🐾❤️

Adelaide May Ross
BoredPanda Staff
Howdy, I'm Adelaide! I'm originally from Texas, but after graduating from university with an acting degree, I relocated to sunny Los Angeles for a while. I then got a serious bite from the travel bug and found myself moving to Sweden and England before settling in Lithuania about three years ago. I'm passionate about animal welfare, sustainability and eating delicious food. But as you can see, I cover a wide range of topics including drama, internet trends and hilarious memes. I can easily be won over with a Seinfeld reference, vegan pastry or glass of fresh cold brew. And during my free time, I can usually be seen strolling through a park, playing tennis or baking something tasty.

Kornelija Viečaitė
BoredPanda Staff
Hi there, fellow pandas! As a person (over)educated both in social sciences and literature, I'm most interested in how we connect and behave online (and sometimes in real life too.) The human experience is weird, so I try my best to put its peculiarities in writing. As a person who grew up chronically online, I now try to marry two sides of myself: the one who knows too much about MySpace, and the one who can't settle and needs to see every corner of the world.

I'm a visual editor at Bored Panda. I kickstart my day with a mug of coffee bigger than my head, ready to tackle Photoshop. I navigate through the digital jungle with finesse, fueled by bamboo breaks and caffeine kicks.

Jurgita Dominauskaitė
BoredPanda Staff
Having started as a content creator that made articles for Bored Panda from scratch I climbed my way up to being and editor and then had team lead responsibilities added as well. So it was a pretty natural transition from writing articles and titles as well as preparing the visual part for the articles to making sure others are doing those same tasks as I did before well, answering their questions and guiding them when needed. Eventually I realized editing gives me the most enjoyment and I'm focusing only on that right now.
