About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wake up every morning with the thought that something wonderful is about to happen!

ABOUT ME

Everything happens for a reason! Life's too short to wake up with regrets and not doing things that makes us happy!
Ever since I can remember, traveling was always my passion. Just thinking about it, makes me wanna pack my backpack and go! :)
I've been traveling for the last 4 years, and looking back, I don't regret a single minute of my last four years! In fact, I would do everything all over again!

Im on Working Holiday Visa in Canada, living in a beautiful Victoria on Vancouver Island. I guess fate brought me here, because I have the best job in the World! I'm working in a beautiful B&B as a volunteer and I get to meet new and interesting people from all over the world every day!

I'm naturally happy, friendly and optimistic girl (I think?),big fan of the mountains, the sun and adventure. I like to read books and write my own blog. I'm not a material person and I believe that minimalism makes people happier. Cooking is also one of the things I like to do, although I'm not really good, but I do bake yummy desserts (well, at least my friends say so..:)

I'm usually shy at the beginning when I meet new people, but give me an hour..or two :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to share my experience and my way of life - how to have fun and how to live your life. How not to regret things. How to smile and laugh. How to say hi to a stranger, how to tell someone they're beautiful. How to forget and forgive. How to be yourself and do what you want, and say what you feel. And most importantly, how to feel alive!
