ISSUE NO. 25 | JUNE 2022
and feel I am following my personal mission, and I think that is key for anyone to find a good balance in the first place. Finally, as a bit of humor …. 9. If you could go anywhere in the world right now, free of charge and all expenses included, where would you go?
included would always be amazing, though the “time” factor is also key and sometimes limitative. At this moment in life I’d possibly do a roadtrip in the USA and Latin America. I would visit some of the most legendary places in these countries, be next to some of the most amazing natural wonders of the world, and of course find some time to rest and chill on a nice beach.
I love travelling and having expenses fjlkjk
