Hello and Welcome

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.
                            ― Maya Angelou

 

Welcome to my corner of the world! I'm thrilled to have you here and eager to share a little about myself.

First and foremost, I'm a woman on a journey—both figuratively and literally. Family is at the heart of everything I do as a mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, and auntie. My family's love and support fuel my adventures and inspire me to embrace life's endless possibilities.

Professionally, I wear many hats. By day, I work as a remote leader in HRIS (Human Resource Information Systems - Technology), and my side hustle is as a dedicated massage therapist, helping others find peace and relaxation amid life's chaos. But when the workday ends, I become a passionate travel blogger, chasing wanderlust across Europe and beyond.

For me, travel isn't just about ticking off bucket list destinations (although I do love a good adventure!). It's about seeking new experiences, forging connections with people and places, and discovering the beauty of diversity in all its forms.

Europe holds a special place in my heart. From the wet, verdant streets of the United Kingdom to the amazing food, wine, and beaches of Portugal and Greece, each corner of this continent offers a new perspective and a new opportunity for growth. As I roam its cobblestone streets and meandering alleys, I'm constantly searching for new meaning and, perhaps, a new place to call home.

I invite you to join me on this journey of self-discovery and exploration through my blog. Whether you're a fellow traveler, a seeker of inspiration, or simply curious about the world, there's a place for you in this vibrant community.

So, grab a cup of tea (or a glass of wine – no judgment here!), settle in, and let's embark on this adventure together. Who knows what wonders await us just around the corner?

With love and wanderlust,

Belinda, "the Special Assignment"
