Embracing Life’s Twists and Turns: My Journey from Hungary to the Canary Islands

Hey there, lovely souls! Today, I’m thrilled to share a little peek into my whirlwind of a life journey. Buckle up as we dive into the highs, the lows, and the unexpected twists that have shaped my path from Hungary to the sunny shores of the Canary Islands.

Picture this: a young girl with big dreams and an insatiable thirst for adventure. That’s me, born and raised in Hungary, but always yearning for something more, something different. So, at the tender age of 18, I packed my bags and set off for the land of opportunity – America.

For a year and a half, I called America home, soaking in the vibrant culture and exploring every corner of the country. But life has a funny way of throwing curveballs, and soon I found myself back in Hungary, grappling with a family tragedy that turned my world upside down.

But they say that out of darkness comes light, and in the midst of my grief, I found love. For ten beautiful years, I shared my life with my partner, and when we finally tied the knot, it felt like the happiest day of my life. Little did I know, that happiness would be short-lived.

Just two months into our marriage, my world came crashing down as I discovered a third party had entered our relationship. The pain, the betrayal – it was almost too much to bear. But life goes on, and so did I. With a heavy heart, I packed my bags once again and headed to London, where I found solace in the rhythm of the city and the hum of the salon where I worked as a hairdresser.

And then, like a ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds, I received a job offer that would change everything – an opportunity to work in the Canary Islands. The sun, the sea, the promise of a fresh start – I couldn’t resist. So off I went, ready to embrace whatever life had in store.

Me and my gorgeous little angel.
I’d also like to share a little about my 11-year-old son, who is the greatest blessing in my life. Words alone can’t express the depth of my love for him. He fills my days with endless joy and wonder, and his presence is my greatest source of inspiration and happiness.

Little did I know, that the islands held one more surprise for me – the love of my life and the greatest gift I could ever ask for – my beautiful child. But as fate would have it, his father was not meant to stay. And so, I found myself facing the daunting task of single parenthood, armed with nothing but love and determination.

It hasn’t been easy, I’ll be the first to admit. There have been sleepless nights, endless tears, and moments where I questioned whether I was up to the task. But then I look into my son’s eyes, and I’m reminded of the incredible strength that lies within me.

So here we are, embarking on this new chapter together, my little boy and I. It’s a journey filled with ups and downs, twists and turns, but one thing’s for sure – I wouldn’t change a single moment of it for the world. So here’s to new beginnings, to embracing the unknown, and to living each day with love, laughter, and a whole lot of courage.

In today’s update, I want to delve into the specific ways in which keeping a diary has transformed my daily routine and mental well-being. By writing down my thoughts and feelings, I’ve gained a deeper understanding of my emotions and how they influence my actions. This practice has not only provided clarity but also helped me to navigate challenging situations with greater ease.

This week, I explored a new hobby that has brought me immense joy and relaxation. I decided to try reading a book , and it has been a wonderful experience so far. Engaging in this activity has allowed me to unwind and disconnect from daily stresses, offering a much-needed mental break.

Additionally, I’ve been reading Atomic habits- James Clear, which has provided valuable insights into self development. The lessons from this reading material have been eye-opening and have inspired me to make positive changes in my life. I look forward to sharing more about these insights in future vlogs.

I highly recommend this book to everyone.
Atomic Habits” by James Clear is a transformative guide on how to build good habits and break bad ones. Clear’s practical strategies have helped me understand the power of small, incremental changes. By focusing on tiny adjustments in my daily routine, I’ve been able to create lasting positive habits and improve my productivity. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to make meaningful changes in their life.📚📓

My advice to you – single mom:

Every week, I will be sharing a new vlog, providing you with fresh insights into my life and reflections. One practice that has been immensely beneficial for me, and which I highly recommend, is maintaining a diary. Recording my emotions daily has been incredibly therapeutic and insightful. I am excited to explore new aspects of my journey each week and to impart valuable lessons to you, dear friends.
