SPC England: London is a city that I have fallen in love with!

SPC Spain and Portugal: Live-in-the-Moment!

My name is Anya, and I’ve lived my teenage years inside my comfort zone– going through the daily motions of school, work, and going out. Every day, I would postpone my “dream planning” for tomorrow (which really means never). I operated assuming that tomorrow was guaranteed to be there, and I ignored the passage of … Continue reading SPC Spain and Portugal: Live-in-the-Moment!
