About Me

Life MISSION

Being my best self. Finding the beauty in each day.

PHILOSOPHY

If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies, embrace the change and beauty *

I live to learn. I live to see that not everything can be explained and justified in black or white. I love finding the beauty in everything.

I believe there is never one right or one wrong. Every experience has a purpose. The key to learning for me is to bang my head a few times before realizing that it hurts. And than learning one big painful lesson but enriching myself from it. Experience is everything and I have learnt some of my greatest life lessons just by being on the right path at the right time or even taking the rocky road just to see where I would end up.
