How life can be such a long journey being so short?
It always seemed to me that life was about getting somewhere, being rich, having power, being successful. But all those things look so superficial now… Maybe this is because I’m almost 40 and just found the purpose of life? Bullshit! I didn’t even find the purpose of my life yet!
I wish I was lucky enough to have found my calling earlier and followed the path to my fate as soon as I could, but that didn’t happen. Anyway, just because I don’t know what I’m supposed to do, it doesn’t mean I’m not going to do anything, right?
This phase of my life starts in 2013 when I spent some days in Vancouver during vacation time and fell in love with the city. This city made me feel things I never felt before. It was like a dream: Calm, peaceful, distant… Living here became an obsession to me.
So I came to live here in 2015. I got a college course going on, I had Visas, and I had all the money from my pension plan to start a new life. It was a dream coming true. But like most people, I thought my transition was going to be easy and smooth, and that was my first mistake. Adapting to a new culture and language is a little more difficult than I thought… The good news is that now I have a lot of beautiful stories to tell about my adventures, failures, and success of course!
Well, I started blogging a long time ago when the internet was still a mystery to most of the people and you had to learn English and coding to do anything online. Good times! Now it’s easy to be here! Anybody can do it! And there’s a lot of shit out there. It’s hard to find good things to read online because there’s a lot to put in the funnel. This is why I’m fully committed to delivering quality blog material to inform, entertain, and help (if I can) the audience.
Just remember that I’m still learning and sometimes I’ll make mistakes. Just like in life, I’ll learn with them and keep going ’cause life is a long journey but it’s also too short.
Enjoy!
Lili
