On August 17, 2021, I moved to Barcelona, Spain to start my MBA at IESE Business School. My original goal was to try and vlog everything but I soon came to the realisation that I definitely didn’t and wouldn’t have time for all of that. But what I would have time for was at least was sharing my journey.
Someone asked me the other day if I was a photographer and I stopped them right there in their tracks. Of course I’m definitely nowhere near nor do I even want to learn how to become a real photographer but what I do want to do is Capture Memories. I understand that this is a once in a lifetime experience and I AM going to make the most of it but I also want to make sure that not only me, but everyone else that is here with me has photo evidence to tell their friends, family and future kids that this is doable….and that they were fun lol.
So I’d like to invite you to come with me on this photo/video/blog/vlog/whatever type of content journey that I’m on. Experience my life with me and please feel free to reach out, leave comments, ask questions, donate (hehehehe I’m a college student now) as this will be fun! Every week, I will try and post an update along with my favorite pictures I took.

**Also a side note: I am taking high precaution with COVID but I am also living life the way I want to so don’t ask/comment on it as I will ignore 🙂
