Have you ever tried to stand at isolated place and scream as much as you can? It used to be on my list “to try” things for really long time, until I told my friend in India and he made me to do it. I haven´t done it again until yesterday. It took 26 days of the...
It has been exactly three weeks today since me and my dog Ignác started our road trip to Spain and Portugal. As it is my natural habit I keep worrying from the beginning about time flying too fast. But now I must say I realized I am still in the first half. Anyway next week we are going to...
In past few days I feel like knowing how to do nothing would save my life. I came here to Spain to rest, think about my life and eventually make some plan for my potential future back home. This sounds very simple, but it contains a lot of activities I want to do. Of course I didn´t come so far to...
My heart is broken. I came here to Spain hoping to heal it. My life has been going wrong direction for few months now and it´s time to stop, reflect and think about the future maybe. Or maybe just the present would be enough. I am often so concerned about the future that I forget to feel...
« part 2: Should I change the plan? Final decision It´s Wednesday late afternoon. This was the best day since I started this trip. In the morning I was leaving hotel decided to go to the paid camp 5 km from Modrava, where I would just stay and chill. My feet were still hurting, but after repacking and leaving...
Hello world, it´s me. Veronika, who used to write you letters some time ago. I feel it´s time to come back and write another one again. For those, who don´t know, I am a writer of my own stories. I have written few of them and kept them in my drawer until someone told me to share them. That´s...
« part 1: How long can I go? Scary night After I finished writing, I sneaked into my sleeping bag and fell asleep like a baby. Until what I was afraid of came true. Ignác woke me up growling and barking and before I managed to stop him, he escaped the tent. I heard something which made me think someone else...
At the moment I feel like being so ridiculous. Maybe (probably) it´s because I am so much alone while writing these words as I can´t talk with anyone except my dog. I am all by myself in the middle of mountains with my phone dead. I really want to call Raja right now and tell him I am alive, but...
Sometimes even a big cliché can help us, when told at the right moment. There are often things we know, but we don´t know how to use them and it´s good to have them reminded. Few days ago my friend told me: „If you don´t like something, start the change yourself, don´t want it from others.“...
When one of my best friends read my first articles, her reaction was: „I wouldn´t be able to write anything even in my own language.“ Then I immediately thought: „I wouldn´t be able to make any of those handcrafts she is so good at.“ Obviously every person is good at something else. We can´t be all...
