📍TARANAKI🇳🇿
Even after being back home for more than 2 months I'm still in awe with the view I had the privilege to look at every single day (when there were no clouds.😉🌫)
Words can't describe what I've experienced in Taranaki but I'll try.
It has probably been the toughest time of my stay in New Zealand and not just because the end of my trip was coming closer.
I decided to share not only happy thoughts under this post even though the photos suggest otherwise.
Can't remember a year when May - my birthday months - has been tougher. Which says a lot considering it was always the time of the year when pressure started to increase during my sports career, exams took place, etc.
Decisions had to be made that had impact on my future for when I was coming home. Waited endless days - I honestly didn't sleep more than 2-3 hours a day - for a call that never came. Saw my future crumbling. Got surprised - which doesn't happen easily. Made the decision to start somewhere new when coming home, I couldn't be happier about that now! Because sometimes things just happen, the stars align, fate, ... I don't know... and you have to let them happen - take them as chances to take new paths!!
I took care of the 4 grown-up dogs which sounds like a dream but I was 80% of my days just by myself and those dogs helped me to get through them.🤍🐕
Had my 29th birthday (no pressure here for the timeline) at the end of the world, which wasn't that new because I spent a lot of my birthdays racing, away from home at the pools in France or Sweden. But I always had my friends there with me.
During that time I learnt so much about myself, what I want for me and my future, and that I want to spend every minute possible doing what I love and with my family and friends!❤
Thank you, Taranaki! - I'll be forever grateful for the lessons I've learnt. 🙏🏽
