What is travel for you?

Life, freedom and finding myself. Travel is the way I want to keep living the rest of my life.

What keeps you motivated?

Good music, interesting people I meet, new experiences waiting for me, writing stories… The list is endless.

Who are the people that inspires you to write? Who inspires you?

All the blogs I follow and read. And all the people reading my blog. It still amazes me that someone would like to read my texts. And of course the people in my past who thought I will never succeed in my life and dreams.

How will you achieve great results in writing your blog?

Well… Being myself? I haven’t really thought that too much. Right now I will just keep writing and hoping that someone wants to read.

What is favorite color?

Pink, black, green.

How old are you when you started writing?
