  • Description

    I once believed that I would always be an introverted person, too shy and scared to do many things. But as I started dealing with the many questions that came into my mind, I found that the reasons behind those fears slowly disappeared over time. I became happier, more passionate, and more willing to take adventures. It’s not like I’m addicted to extreme things, but if you asked me to jump from a really high place supported only by a rope, I’d probably want to try it — and that used to be on my “No way in hell I would do that” list.

    With this courage, I think it’s time to go abroad and discover the world with my own eyes. I applied for a working holiday visa, but at first I still didn’t know what I wanted to do. Then I remembered my experience as a work exchange helper in a remote area in my country. That experience showed me that there are many different ways to live in this world. I was really excited to observe how other people live and slowly internalize those experiences into my own way of life. So I thought — why not continue having these experiences in other countries, when I’m so interested in observing others and learning from them?

    I love reading, working out, and meditation. I’m interested in psychology, and I once attended a Vipassana meditation retreat, where we meditated for 10 hours a day to truly face ourselves. These are all things I’d love to share with you, and I also hope to bring something new back with me during my stay.

    Thanks for reading this far. You can probably tell that I also love writing from this long self-introduction. I really hope I’ll have the chance to visit you and exchange stories, experiences, and perspectives together.

    See you then!
