Thank you, Thailand!

Facebook memories reminded me that right about this time three years ago I moved to Chiang Mai and was in the process of adapting to my new life - trying out new food, discovering the city on a rented pink bicycle and having mango shakes for breakfast.

When I think about that period of my life, I feel so many mixed emotions. It was one of the craziest experiences ever, and I have to be honest - it didn't go that smoothly in the beginning. Moving to another part of the world all on your own is not easy sometimes, especially if you're moving with lots of hopes, dreams and fears.

That's why I'm writing this post to say thank you to this amazing country. Thank you, Thailand!

Thank you for being so beautiful, happy and welcoming!

The sense of HOME: back to Sicily again

You know all those overly used phrases? "Home is where your heart is", "home is not a place, but people", etc.?

Well, of course those words are used way too much, but only because they are true. What no one usually tells you is that your heart has an ability to be at two, three, twenty places at once.

It doesn't mean less love for your first home though.

It just means that when you are happy, your heart grows. Infinitely.

When I started this blog, I was living in Kyiv, Ukraine - the beautiful and charming city, where I was born and raised. I was working from home, so really needed a sort of a creative outlet – something that will motivate me to write, to take photos, to dress up once in a while and tell someone about my life.
For example, about going to Pyrohiv (in Kyiv)…

Cambodia

Actually, I've been back in Kyiv for two month now, and I don't know for how long yet. But I still have ton of travel pictures to show you. So today I'm telling you about my trip to Cambodia, so in this post you'll find lots of pictures of Siem Reap and some of my travel tips about visiting Cambodia.

 

Siem Reap is the second biggest city in Cambodia (after the capital, Phnom Penh). It's name means "flat defeat of Siam", which is kinda ironic, because these days Siam is called Thailand and it provides a constant flow of tourists into Cambodia.
