I Still Do Not Realise This Is My Life Now And That I Do Not Have A Job Anymore!

Updated: Aug 10, 2023

Soon it’ll be one month I’m living on the road -except when I stopped in Istanbul where an incredible human being hosted me.


I’m often asked how I feel and how is it going so far. To be honest, I do not realise what’s happening yet…I think it’s way too early. I feel like if I’m on holidays and that it’ll soon end and I’ll have to go back to work. My mind hasn’t processed this new way of life yet and I feel it’s going to take a while. It’s a radical change from this ‘old’ life in London: working (I liked my job very much!), spending some good time with my friends and going back to France regularly.

Today, I’ve got no job anymore, this end of the month feels weird for me because I’m not getting paid for the first time in 11 years (hah!) but ‘weird’ especially because I’ve never felt so HAPPY and FREE in all my life.


(I wanted to add something again, I’m NOT rich, I had to save money as much as I could, I stopped going out -the Coco thing helped a lot in the process-, family hosted me for a long period of time, and when I had to buy things I did it very carefully).


I know this adventure will have to end one day and that it’s a big risk to quit everything but I just don’t care at the moment. I don’t care because this feeling of being fully aligned with who you truly are inside and what you always wanted to do (roaming the world) is just priceless.

I wish everyone in the world, starting with you guys, could ever feel what I’m feeling today.

I have no regrets so far. I see Africa around the corner and my heart is the happiest. I wish my grandparents could experience such an adventure with me. I know they follow this travel daily btw.


I wish you all to be happy x
