Hey oh
This post is about celebrating 2023, the best year of my adult life without a doubt, but before celebrating moments of it I want to first share with you the why. 2023 was the year of change. First there was one change that led me to transform my life. This year I finally connected with myself. I stopped pushing my emotions and thoughts down. I started prioritising my self and my mental well-being. 
To be honest it wasn’t a willing choice. Late in 2022 I was a mess, and that led me to experience a breakdown that forced me for once to wake up and face reality. Soon after that I started going to therapy, which was one of the best decisions of my life. I was ready to break the wrong patterns, the issues that I carry and there was a person ready to help me do that. In parallel, I started reading books that were a source of new ideas and approaches in life. Later in the year I also dived into meditation and the practise of being conscious in every day life. These tools enabled me to start living for myself and to be unapologetically me while doing so, in all my relationships and connections in life, my parents, my existing friends and whoever else I crossed paths with. 
While writing all this, I get reminded about the work that I did this year, but to be honest while doing it, it didn’t feel like work. Fixing issues and improving myself, felt liberating. The issues that I dealt with are not that important, because they are not really unique. But while I was bottling shit up, they felt unique and I felt alone. Once I started connecting and talking to people, everything became easier. So if you are feeling like I was, you are not alone and people are willing to listen to you. If your friends are not, then they shouldn’t remain your friends.
Thanks to my amazing girlfriend who was the person that showed me that people cared, thanks to friends and family that were with me during this journey and embraced my new approach on things. Thanks to the new people in my life for all the nice moments we have shared. I can’t wait to continue sharing my life with all of you :) 
Here are some highlights from beautiful and adventurous moments
