Has it ever occurred to you that in life the secret is just you just decide to be happy? I realized it a few years ago, the trigger for me was that a friend of mine (kept defining me a happy person). I had never even thought about it before but… that made me feel so good that I started considering myself one and i … Continue reading Happiness as a lifestyle
This is one of those trips where you don’t know what to expect. One of those trips where you leave alone overexcited and with 20 books downloaded on your kindle for 3 weeks, just in case (but you maybe manage to read 2). One of those trips for which you know nothing about but what matters is going. But it is one amazing experience! … … Continue reading Daydreaming – Back on The Canadian
I am in DC. It feels like summer despite being only late February. The first warm sun is out and the National Mall is crowded with tourists and people jogging. I went to see the sunset in front of the Capitol, and before going home I decided to take a walk on the streets of a quiet Sunday night. The night breeze is cooling down … Continue reading Thankful in DC

I don’t know how all of this started. I don’t know when it clicked. All I know is that once I started this like I could quit. I couldn’t stay only in one place anymore. I would lose my motivation, my spark. But what does it really mean to be a traveler? Having a lot of friends and people you know all over the globe. … Continue reading Boarding Again
Every time I see a University campus my heart rate immediately increases. I went to University till MSc, made thousands of friends, partied like crazy and… studied of course! However, even today, when I cross a campus or sometimes even when i just move to another city, again all I can think of is..I want to be a student again. I want to have more of … Continue reading University Attraction
Nothing else gives me the feeling travelling does. Packing my backpack. What do I really need? I realise every time I pack less stuff in it. Essentials: sweaters, tank tops hiking shoes, headphones a book. Oh yeah, perhaps a nice t-shirt just in case. Logistics. I have booked the hostel but how do I get there? Google maps. Ok, doesn’t take long 🙂 I should … Continue reading The excitement of a new journey
