About
Meet the Writer
Hi! Olá! Hallo! I'm Vitória. I'm a curious Portuguese who lives in Switzerland. I love to learn new things and explore multiple interests. Painting, traveling, reading, learning languages, building stuff, gardening, working out, healthy eating, writing... I am basically a perpetual student of life. I moved abroad by myself at the age of twenty one, which only made me want to travel more. Now, over ten years later, I deeply appreciate how moving around and traveling allowed me to experience different places, cultures and ways to live. It opened my eyes and mind about so many things!, and had a huge impact on the person I am today.
​
The goal of this blog is to share knowledge, tips or experiences with fellow curious souls. Here, you will find a variety of (hopefully interesting) tales. Tips to make your travels smoother, maybe some DIY projects, let's find out. I really enjoy writing and in 2023 I found the perfect excuse to finally start a blog: my transition to wearing barefoot shoes exclusively. But this isn't the only topic I cover, don't run away in your heavy shoes, wait! I would love to bring you along as I attempt to write regularly and offer you some knowledge or something else to think about. :) Thanks for stopping by!
