These photos of me below: today I revisited this beautiful place. 💖 It reminded me of where I have been, what has changed, and where I am going!
It is a forest in Howth, Dublin. I call it Jumanji because it has crazy palm trees and Rododendron bushes etc. Doesn't feel like Ireland!
So much has happened since these photos were made. Today, going there it made it so clear how much things have changed in the last couple of years. I remember chatting to the photographer, (my friend here on Steemit 
Back then I was a waitress in a pub. I had no money and was working so hard. But since then I trained to work in airlines and got a job as cabin crew. I've gotten braces on my teeth and now they're straight. I have made so many new friends, and redecorate my room where I live. I don't know what I'm trying to say, just that you can change your situation if you make the right decisions and have some support from good friends.
I will never forget that period of my life. Like I was waking up. Making friends. Following dreams, and have HOPE!
And now I have even more friends. All you wonderful people of Steemit!
Thanks for visiting. Please say hello in the comments!
-- Love, Vajola
