I’m a girl who grew up navigating the challenges of self-expression in a world that often felt like survival mode. However, as an adult, I’ve embarked on a journey of self-discovery. I’ve learned that my voice matters and that embracing my creativity is not just important—it’s essential. Join me as I explore the power of self-expression and share my journey of finding inspiration in everyday life.
A trip down to memory lane..
At 20, right after finishing my degree I packed up everything I knew and left my home— to chase opportunities abroad leaving the rest behind. My upbringing taught me the importance of responsibility and resilience. I carried the crown of a breadwinner and my main goal was to support my family in ways that would give us a better life.
From a young age, the idea that life is more than just work and obligations always resonated with me. I’ve always felt that real fulfilment comes from experiences that touches the soul—whether through travel, connecting with people, nature, or simply finding moments of stillness to reflect.
Moving abroad was both a challenge and a blessing.
It forced me to grow in ways I never expected—to be independent, resilient and patient with myself. But while I was focused on taking care of my loved ones, there was always a quiet voice inside me that wished for something deeper—a desire to connect with life beyond the everyday hustle.
In the quiet moments, far from the familiar, I learned to embrace solitude. I’m an introvert at heart, preferring quiet time over the noise of social scenes, and that’s where I discovered a deeper connection to life and nature, it’s these moments that have fueled and driven me to seek out new perspectives and experiences, to feel a deeper connection to the world and myself.
I’ve been fortunate enough to travel to a few countries, I’ve seen new cultures and each experience has opened my eyes to new perspectives. But despite the adventures I’ve had, I can’t ignore the feeling that there’s so much more to discover and experience in this world.
The questions of when? and how? always cross my mind and I remind myself to keep seeking new experiences big or small. I hold on to the hope that one day, I’ll find the freedom to fully pursue my dreams beyond the limits of my job.

Now at 31, I’m rediscovering the parts of myself I once put on hold,
This blog is my way of sharing that journey with you—whether it’s through stories of travel, reflections on life, or simple musings on what it means to grow and discover. I hope, through my words, you’ll find a bit of inspiration that sparks your own journey.
