as cidades grandes do Vietnã é puro caos: um trânsito insano, do tipo que só de atravessar a rua você corre risco de vida. é moto, é carro, é restaurante montado na calçada. é chuva torrencial do nada e aquele calor que se estende no corpo inteiro em segundos: pés inchados, bochechas vermelhas, pele umedecida.

ah, e tem a rica cultura do café: bebemos de manhã, de tarde, e de noite — então tu vives tudo isso num estado ultra-cafeinado 😅 é fácil de se perder na loucura, se sentir sem chão, mas, ao mesmo tempo, encontrei um certo conforto na familiaridade do caos… me lembro do caos gostoso do Rio de Janeiro.

Ha Long Bay, onde essa foto foi feita, é o oposto de tudo isso. é um lugar de paz, um refúgio na natureza do Vietnã, que, apesar do caos das cidades, e um país repleto de MUITA natureza, e lugares com uma energia inexplicável como esse.

passamos três dias e duas noites navegando a baía decorada com picos verdes que transmitem uma certa tranquilidade — era minha segunda vez fazendo esse passeio, 5 anos depois da minha primeira jornada a Ásia, e até me recordava de certas montanhas aqui, ou de memória, ou das fotos que tirei…

e foi como eu ouvi elas me dizendo, “depois de tudo que você viveu, estamos aqui, firmes e fortes, te recebendo mais uma vez: bem-vinda.”

It can be scary — correction: terrifying — to It can be scary — correction: terrifying — to follow an invisible feeling or belief that’s bigger than the daily routine, errands, tasks, responsibilities, and timelines that we use to give our existence a sense of structure and meaning.

To step away and say “I’m going to dive within” goes against everything we’ve been taught. It means balancing external stimuli — like expectations, advice from friends, your bank account balance, and self-imposed ideas of success — with the truth that exists within you.

Our internal compass can guide us better than our Google calendars or agendas ever will.

Now, tuning into that requires a whole lot of work. But it starts with believing. Believing that you are larger than your day-to-day, that you are inherently part of something much greater, that the universe will be on your side when you’re following the path that aligns with your greater purpose.

It’s also understanding that it won’t be easy. We’re conditioned to follow the blueprint that our parents and their parents have fought to create for us. Their struggles provided us with a brighter future — but it also gave us the liberty to create a life different than the one they imagined for us.

You know that little voice in your head that tells you what you actually want to do and how you want to do it and when you want to do it — and you silence it, because, well, “that’s just crazy.”

Practice listening to it, in small doses. Make small decisions based on that voice. When you wake up, is it telling you to make a coffee at home, or stop at your favorite cafe on the way into work? Do you really want to say “yes” to that invite, or is your inner voice telling you you’d rather stay home? 

Let’s start with baby steps. Tune into yourself today; what do you hear?

One of my goals when I set up on a 7-week trip to One of my goals when I set up on a 7-week trip to Asia was to become comfortable with my own company. It’s something I had been practicing at home in Rio — going to cafes, stores, and book stores alone; taking myself out to lunch; showing up to a new yoga studio on my own.

For a long time I not only felt uncomfortable with my own presence but also incapable of living life on my own. I always needed someone to talk to, someone to text, someone to ask for permission, someone to validate my decisions, someone to tell me I am going to be OK.

And while I’ve built a bulletproof support system of family and friends around me — I forgot to include myself in the process. I lost trust in myself. I lost all authority. I lost my ground.

On this trip, I discovered what it was like to enjoy my own company. More so, I learned how to trust myself again. I knocked on the door where my intuition resides and gave it permission to come out.

But to do so, I had to be alone. There’s a wide spectrum of colors between solitude and loneliness — and that’s where I found myself again.

I dove into the blues of sadness, wandered through the grays of emptiness, fought my way through the reds of anxiety, knelt down and prayed in the yellow fields of gratitude, rode the violet waves of peace.

I danced in the honey-colored bliss of sunrises and sunsets, between the lines of my journals, and the dozens of hotel beds that welcomed me back night upon night, giving me a safe space to rest, process, and reflect.

And that’s the story of my first-ever solo trip abroad — and within — at 31 years old.

15 voos, 7 semanas, 5 países (3 novos!), inúmeras amizades e aprendizados. Grata não começa a descrever o que sinto. 🤍

I’m — of course — still processing what these past 7 weeks meant for me; but trust me when I say there’s so much to come & share.
