What a fortunate girl I am.
Looking back at 2025, my year was split into two phases, connected by a central theme.

I vaguely remember talking to one of my friends early this year about my word for the year. “This year feels like it’s going to be about change.” I didn’t fully understand it then, though.

The first half of the year started with moving to a new city. Moving to a new room (a couple of times). Meeting tons of new people, including a bunch of new housemates. Trying new hobbies. My first internship. And discovering more about myself and what I want in life.

The summer was for exploring new cultures and places, like Albania and Ireland.

Then came the second half of the year.

Moved to a new country. A new city. New housemates (including a lovely host family). Meeting even more new people. Learning so many new things, big and small. A new internship. New dreams. And, overall, a bunch of new experiences.

This year was full of change, firsts, and a lot of unexpected turns of events.

If you know me, you know that I like change. I like switching things up to keep life exciting, and 2025, for me, is a testament to that. I thoroughly enjoyed this year, and thank you to everyone I met along the way who helped make that happen! 🤍

Cheers to 2026! 🥂✨

In some ways, it feels like only 3 weeks ago, and in others, like 3 years, that I arrived in Ireland for the first time. Oh, how time flies! In about a week, I'll be going back home for Christmas. So, in the spirit of reflecting on the year, here are some photos from my first weekend in Dublin. ☺️☘️🍺

Some thoughts I've been thinking about:

If you know me, you know that I love waterfalls, and this place was perhaps one of my favorite spots we visited in Albania.
We wanted to go for a swim, but getting to this location was a bit of a gamble. We were going to lose light fairly quickly, we weren’t sure if the waterfall was still running (since many places had dried up), and we didn’t even know if we could get there at all.
There were plenty of places we could go for a swim that were both closer to our Airbnb and more easily accessible.
To get to the waterfall, we had to do a short hike up the mountain in the 38°C burning heat. Our options: put in the effort to walk up, or turn back and settle for one of the spots we found along the way.

I often tell myself I'd rather regret doing something and having tried than regret not doing it and always wonder, "What if?"
This journey to the waterfall, though perhaps insignificant, reflects that mindset to me.
We could have stopped earlier and found a good spot along the drive. We would have enjoyed it, but from time to time I would still wonder what it would’ve been like at the waterfall.

I’ve been dreaming of living abroad for as long as I can remember. Tomorrow, I’ll be moving abroad for my internship.
There are many cool companies in the Netherlands that I'd enjoy interning at and it would've been easier to do so.
However, I decided I’d rather put in the effort to get where I truly want to go than settle for the easy route and forever wonder, "What if?"

It was about time for a new photoshoot, and this location was stunning! The flowers weren't even out yet so I can only imagine how pretty the garden is in the summer!

The statue shows Hercules wearing the skin of the Nemean lion.
The statue is part of 17 other sandstone statues that William III bought between 1670 and 1686. The statues were spread over lawns in the Valkenberg park. Hercules is the only original statue left. This statue is said to have been fished out of the park's pond in 1887. A replica was made of this statue and placed in the Valkenberg park.
