My story
Hey, I am Anna.
I recently decided to quit my job as an architect to travel to and through Greece. I converted a van in the Netherlands, and drove down South. I learned to let go of plans and expectations, live in the moment, enjoy the Greek culture and most importantly, to not let fear hold me back from anything. Today I am about five months into this journey that changed me completely. Curious about what happened? Read below! And if you want to support my content as well as my journey, buy me a coffee!
