Life is a mystery in itself. In perpetual motion. And I live it to the fullest, following my heart and my intuitions. You would have told me 10 years ago that one day I was going to leave everything (career, security, family, country, etc.) to pursue my dreams, I might not have believed it. Although, maybe too. Who knows, really? I often have the strange impression of having lived several lives, in this one and the same life. And, to still experience a whole range of them as time passes, throughout my adventures and travels!
In fact, possibly my entire journey predestined me for this most unique life! Already, when I had left everything to conquer my dreams and passions and settle under the warm sun of Costa Rica, I had not finished surprising those around me. It seems I was never a so-called “regular” girl and I never had a so-called “regular” life either.
However, I never wanted to be different. I'm only me! Authentic. Simple and passionate. And, unlike many people, I listen to life and my perceptions. Open to this one too! I generally don't have a fixed plan or a "to-do list", I simply follow the flow of life... That's how, without having really premeditated it, after a few years spent in my little adopted country, life had pushed me towards this new bohemian life, on the road. Towards this life of freedom. Of experiences. Strangenesses. Meetings. Of fears. Of fears. Of discoveries. Unknown. Of happiness. Of wonder. Of love.
I was going to discover, learn, get lost through these different experiences. Through these different dimensions. Through these different countries. Explore. What would have happened if I had turned left at the intersection, instead of right?! What would I have experienced if I had stayed there rather than listening to my little internal voice and leaving?! Life offers us millions of possibilities and opportunities. Everything can change and transform in the blink of an eye, for a yes, for a no. Which route will we take at the crossroads? Where would we have ended up if we had chosen a completely different avenue?!
Here is the story of my last years as a nomadic wanderer on the road, walking and carrying my whole life in my suitcases, with me... From Costa Rica to Quebec, via Italy, Switzerland, France, Nepal, Hawaii, the Dominican Republic, before making another jump to Quebec… To end at my starting point, in Costa Rica! Discover my journey from page to page, through these different chapters, journeys, experiences, adventures and dimensions!
