Hello beautiful people!

A few years ago, I decided to take a journey to challenge myself. I was a MBA graduate who spoke a few international languages, developed an unhealthy addiction for lipsticks, with a pretty normal life, nothing too extreme (I am a Libra!), but I was struggling. I felt that all what I have been working for in school, was not valued at its true potential, I felt that I was sinking into some sort of a "too comfortable" situation, you know one of those situations where everything is kinda laid down for you (by family, norms of society) and you need to just follow the path, I felt that I was losing myself as human, I felt that my true self was still undiscovered.

So, I moved across the Globe with 2 stuffed suitcases (one full of cosmetics) and started from scratch. To paint an idyllic picture about my situation it would be such a lie; there was nothing easy about my journey, but as Pericles said "TIME IS THE WISEST COUNSELOR OF ALL", time heals wounds, in time you learn to discover yourself, in time you grow stronger, TIME DOES TELL.

If I have to put things into perspective, I am extremely grateful for the people who stood by me in my most difficult and yet, bad times, for the people who took the time to know me and discover me as a human and my potential, for all the given opportunities and for the future ones that I know are coming.


THANK YOU!


And because we are keep talking about time, I have collaborated with JORD watches - the creators of luxury, one-of-a-kind wooden watches - to showcase here on my blog, to make you enjoy every moment and be grateful for it because, "moments are bigger than minutes and your watch should tell more than time."

There's nothing more that I enjoy than "my weekend", when I get to spend time with my loved ones, pamper myself, create content for you guys, go on mini escapades and just unwind, so ... CHEERS TO THE WEEKEND!

When the box arrived, I could not be happier and say "What a beautiful and unique watch!" It comes in a sturdy wooden box nicely carved with a "J" initial, that has also a secret compartment, (maybe for your favorite jewelry?!) and comes with a preserve cleansing oil pen and Boveda humidity packs. The watch has a beautiful design and it's a self-winding automatic mechanical system or perpetual movement watch, as a jeweler explained me (basically as long as you move, the watch will work too).

Everything to me from the design to packaging screams earthy, yet modern, classy and elegant, quality piece - just beautiful and unique.

And since a picture is worth more than 1000 words, I asked my best friend and partner in crime to model this men's watch for you guys so you could see what I am talking about at a nice relaxing weekend pool day. Stick till the end - I have a surprise for you!

Now the SURPRISE I was talking about earlier.
