class="content__text" This picture was taken in Jan 2021 and I was so different in the way I looked & felt to now. I’m a person that almost never gets angry. Instead, I get disappointed, sad and self criticizing. In these months in Madrid my challenges have been: •Trying to learn a new language studying 20h per week •Learning when to say no •Facing challenges alone •Act on things & stop complaining •Learning to approach people for help •Stand up for my self It seems so ridiculous maybe, but wow.. This trip has been worth everything I saved up for. This picture reminds me of when I was starting to focus on self development. Quitting the job I didn’t like, starting working out often, and focusing on how to motivate my self every day to keep on going. But, it’s true I really missed adventures and have been challenged by the circumstances around me. Now that I have faced challenges being alone in Madrid, I can’t wait to travel the world more. I would definitely also love to travel with someone in the future; whilst I’ve learnt a lot from travelling alone it can be difficult. There is no one else. It’s all your own effort. When I move to Barcelona my main focus will be taking even more time by my self + focusing on my training & work. Routines are important when living abroad. The most important thing is to try your best and keep up the motivation🙏🏽
