Many people have messaged me, saying I am courageous, inspiring, or that they envy what I do—not in a negative way, but because they haven’t done it themselves. This vlog is my reminder: if I can do what I’m doing, anyone can. Everything comes down to decisions. Choosing a path that isn’t the one everyone else follows takes energy, resources, and the courage to face challenges you never imagined.

Life is full of unexpected twists, and how you meet them is all your doing. Of course, life on Earth sets limits—for so many humans on this planet, like the wrong passport colors for people living in Asia or many other countries who cannot easily travel to the West because of political and economic barriers, or frustrating banking systems that drain us. It is crazily unjust for so many humans on this planet, and it makes me feel really frustrated and angry when I think about it. I am fully aware of these human-made limitations, which feel unbalanced, unnecessary, and unfair.

But I believe we can still live truthfully toward ourselves and follow our own path. It takes courage to break free, and it’s not an easy road—but from my own experiences, it’s definitely worth it in the long run. That makes life for sure, interesting, full of unexpected events, turns, and twists, and you carry yourself wherever you go.

You have your good and bad days, and those unexpected things can strike on one of your bad days. So yeah, you just have to live through it—and with it. And if you can, try looking at it with curiosity, or as a crazy story you’ll share later, even while it’s happening.

If you wanna know what I mean by it, read about my experience in Málaga in “A Thief and an Earthly Angel”. I never thought I could experience it—but I did. Now I know it can happen.
