6.5.26 22:21It's so important to me to be authentic and at the same time it's impossible for me to record a story (on Instagram) when I'm feeling as low as I do right now. In that case, it's always easier for me to write.Writing has been my outlet ever since I was capable of writing.... Continue Reading →
An Eventful Busride
9.4. 20:58Thursday morning, and I didn’t expect today to be any different from any other normal day. But I was wrong. Something would happen. Something that would shake me up a little bit. I did my morning walk and then went back home to start working, as I always do. After I finished work, I... Continue Reading →
Spain Road Trip Travel Diary Part Three (Final Part)
9.1. 20:53I wanted to sleep longer today, but I guess my body is used to the rhythm during the week, so I woke up early anyway. But I enjoyed a slow morning before I finally packed up my stuff and left. Originally, my plan was to go straight to Valladolid, and then afterwards to Salamanca,... Continue Reading →
Spain Road Trip Travel Diary Part Two
5.1. 20:05Tonight was horrible. Unfortunately, I was only able to sleep for about two hours. This was due to the fact that the room in my accommodation was right next to the stairs, and every time someone walked up and down the stairs, it woke me up, and even when people spoke outside of the...

Spain Road Trip Travel Diary Part One
4.1. 20:24Where do I start? It's hard. It's already Day 4 of my road trip, and this is my first diary entry. You're wondering why? I don't know. Lately, I feel down. I'm not sure what it is. I've been feeling for a while now that I'm blocked somehow. But I feel like I'm getting... Continue Reading →
Morocco Travel Diary
26.12. 17:57It's been a while. It's been such a long time that it feels a little weird to write like this again. But only for a little bit. The more I write, the easier I find it. This year, I haven't travelled a lot. At least way less than last year. But even apart from... Continue Reading →
Goodbye 2024 – Hello 2025
Last year was the first time I set goals for the new year, and this year, I want to do the same. So let's start with the fun part and review last year's goals: More self care in terms of moving my body, working out, focusing on my mental health and regular massages to show... Continue Reading →
Volunteering in Valencia after DANA caused a disastrous flood
11 days after DANA caused a disastrous flood in Valencia, I go into the affected areas for the fourth time. The more often I go there, the more it seems to affect me. Physically and mentally. Guilt is just one of the many feelings I'm feeling whenever I come back from volunteering. Questions start to arise: Why did this catastrophe happen? How is it possible to live a normal life next to a war zone-like area? Did a movie just become a reality? How much more will I be able to handle?
Another trip to Austria
Yes, it's been a while. Life in Valencia keeps me busy. Well, I keep myself busy. Only when I moved here, I found out how much I truly missed the city life. As a young person who likes to explore new things, get to know new people, and just being outside, life in my small... Continue Reading →
A holiday in Austria
03.03.2024I'm sitting on the aeroplane to Austria. It's hard to think about my time in Valencia. I've only spent two months there, but it feels like I've been there for a year. I can't even believe that my South/North/Eastern Europe Road trip was only three months ago. To me, it feels like it's been forever.... Continue Reading →
Northern Europe Travel Diary Part Three
26.12. 22:31I wasn't lucky yesterday with the Polar lights. The forecast predicted less than 5% chance, so I didn't get up at night. Today, I drove to a very small town before heading to my next destination. It was behind mountains, and the drive there offered incredible views. One place looked like I had arrived...

Northern Europe Travel Diary Part Two
23.12. 17:27I feel weird. This morning, I arrived in Iceland. The airport was very small, and if I thought Norway was expensive, I was wrong. There was a bus to the city centre (Flybus) for almost 30 Euros or public transport bus fo 15 Euros, but the latter only comes around every two hours on... Continue Reading →
Northern Europe Travel Diary Part One
16.12. 20:12My time in Vilnius was short, but even though I was lacking sleep after my adventurous arrival, I walked to explore the city centre after work. It's a lovely little place with beautiful buildings. As my accommodation was quite a distance outside the centre and I didn't have much time, I used public transport.... Continue Reading →
Southeastern Europe Travel Diary Part Eleven – Border Checks
12.12. 18:50It's been two hectic days, so where do I start? It already feels ages ago that I left Lviv, so it's hard for me to believe it's only been the day before yesterday. Considering everything that I went through in two days, you might understand. When I left Lviv, I informed my accommodation in... Continue Reading →
Southeastern Europe Travel Diary Part Ten
8.12. 19:51Day 2 in Ukraine, and it started with an air alert on my app around 7 a.m. I thought I'd take it seriously, despite what my host said yesterday. I got up and went to the window first to see what's going on outside, but it was normal early traffic. I put on my... Continue Reading →
