Author Description

This is a story about how my life changed from living day-to-day to a successful one, in a perfect place. It's amazing, how everything switched, just like stepping into a parallel universe to a totally different and better life, and finding that Zen I had been looking for all my life. I needed courage to get out of my comfort zone, to go to a new, unknown place with little money, and to try out my luck without having someone to guide me. I changed careers, and all this while taking care of my nine-year-old child alone. None of this would have happened if I hadn't left my country, and then another country as well, to get to Ireland, where I found everything I was hoping for. I never had an easy life. None of my stories are simple or boring; something always happens. And I am also very active, so things can change very quickly in my life. I've become accustomed to being alone and doing everything myself. I have a very few, yet very good friends whom I know I can count on; however I always try to do things on my own. As you can see, it is possible. My best friend told me that she always tells people that if they were to leave me on an ice floe, I would survive and make it home for sure. She might be right. I am like a cockroach that can adapt to every new situation and survive anything. I am a roach, but an attractive one.
