  • I'm learning some valuable lessons lately, I'm understanding how falling is necessary to then rise up stronger than before. Climbing our mountains, fighting our battles, feeling the pain they bring can seem so unbearable and draining. But if we cling on to the bit of glimmering hope we all have hidden in our hearts and find the courage to take that first unreachable step or leap infinite possibilities await for us on the other side. If we find the gut to possibly fall the fall won't last forever. We will hit the ground eventually and though it might hurt like a motherfucker, we'll still have ourselves to cling onto and get back on the trail. Don't be afraid to climb, don't be afraid to fall.Keep going up. Jump! It's all worth it I swear ✨💛 —S . 🇮🇹ITA - sto imparando delle lezioni importanti ultimamente. sto capendo quanto cadere sia necessario per poi rialzarsi più forti di prima. Scalare le nostre montagne e combattere le nostre battaglie e sentire il dolore che portano a volte può sembrare intollerabile e estenuante ma se troviamo il coraggio di aggrapparci a quella piccola scintilla che abbiamo tutti nascosta nei nostri cuori,la speranza, e facciamo quel primo impossibile passo o salto, infinite possibilita' ci aspettano dall'altra parte. Se troviamo le palle di cadere la caduta non durera' per sempre; toccheremo il fondo a un certo punto e farà un male atroce probabilmente ma avremmo ancora noi stessi a cui aggrapparci e piano piano torneremo sul sentiero. Non aver paura di scalare. Non aver pura di cadere. Continua a salire. Salta. Ne vale la pena, lo giuro! ✨💛 . Thank you for bringing me here #marcheexpress . . . ⚠️p.s don't put your life in danger for your IG pics 😂 (I'm an expert!) .

  • “I must be a mermaid, Rango. I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living.” ― Anaïs Nin . I finally got the chance to play around with underwater photography 😍🐳 it was MUCH more difficult than I thought! Coordinate underwater is not easy and I kept getting a ton of water in my nose...it was tragicomic and nearly a disaster but we got a good shot out of ten million wrong ones 😂 Pic taken a few days ago in Conero, Marche 🇮🇹 with a @gopro (I retouched the shit out of it to make it look like this! I'll show you a before and after in my stories tomorrow!) Thank you so much @marcheexpress for bringing me to this crazy beautiful place! #marcheexpress #viviamolemarche @marchetourism . . . . . #italy #travel #IamATraveler #wanderlust #travelgirl #tlpicks #passionpassport #traveldeeper #tandctravel #beautifuldestinations #huffpostgram #outdoors #livetravelchannel #timeoutsociety #travelstoke #natgeo #lonelyplanet #peoplecreatives #theweekoninstagram #photooftheday #lovetravel #traveler #sunset #TheImage #VSCO #VisualAmbassadors #LifeOfAdventure
  • "Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like." —Lao Tzu .

  • "For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), It's always our self we find in the sea." —E.E. Cummings .

  • Taking a break from Asia's pics and showing you what I've been up to here in Italy 🇮🇹if you haven't seen my stories, I'm working with @marcheexpress this week to explore the Marche. This region was deeply affected by last year's earthquakes and @ilarysgrill created a campaign involving many Italian artists and bloggers to show the world the beauty the region still has to offer! Tune into my stories to see the behind the scenes of this adventure(like me hanging on cliffs again 😂) P.s.my camera is still not giving any sign of life 😭😭😭 wanna die right now 😭 thank gosh @pierlu__igi saved the day and let me use his! #markeexpress . . . P.p.s ⚠️this pic is an artsy pic and is not meant to reflect reality (it's a real place but I don't usually hang out in fields staring in the distance 😂😂) • • • • #Italy #TheImage #VSCO #Marche #Pink #Original_Experiences #LifeOfAdventure #ArtOfVisuals #EarthPix #EarthFocus #DiscoverGlobe #BestVacations #TheGlobeWanderer #AGameOfTones #Hotel #HeaterCentral #BeautifulDestinations #RoamThePlanet #MoodyGrams #ExploreToCreate #DiscoverEarth #WanderOut #StayAndWander #Canon_Photos #Awesome_Photographers #mycanon
  • "Now this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky, And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack." –Rudyard Kipling, The jungle book . Have you ever been into the Jungle? I spent quite a bit of time in it in the last few months in Asia and it taught me some things I didn't know about myself, like how little I really need to live happily and how much I can learn about life from just looking at nature. I'll tell you all about it soon (I need to find the time to sit down and write a million overdue blog posts!). I've been back in the western world for less than two weeks and I already can't wait to be back in the jungle and walk around barefoot! 🌴🐘 This pic was taken in a beautiful and magical place hidden in the Northern Thailand Jungle called Chai Lai sisters (a branch of @chailaiorchid), ran by girls of the Karen tribe (I'll share the link to their website when the blog post is ready). . P.s featuring 5 new accounts tomorrow, write your suggestions in the comments(no self nominations!😉) P.p.s this is NOT an IG-spot and I posted at the worst time so this pic will tank cause very few of you will see it...ahh dear old numbers game 😂🖕🏻 . . . #asia #travel #IamATraveler #wanderlust #travelgirl #tlpicks #passionpassport #traveldeeper #tandctravel #beautifuldestinations #huffpostgram #outdoors #livetravelchannel #timeoutsociety #travelstoke #natgeo #lonelyplanet #peoplecreatives #theweekoninstagram #photooftheday #lovetravel #traveler #sunset #TheImage #VSCO #VisualAmbassadors #Original_Experiences #LifeOfAdventure
  • While I was in Thailand I got to spend some time with these beautiful majestic creatures. I spent 4days in the jungle with them, and I learned so many things I can't wait to share with you (writing a blog post about this too!) I already talked to you about this but I think it's important to say it again: please don't ride elephants! In order for people to ride them they go through a brutal and torturous process, they are separated from the mother and they are beaten into submission. Be responsible and respect all animals wherever you go! Love 💛🐘 —S . P.s still working in getting back to your messages and comments, give me a few more days 🙏🏻😊 . . #asia #travel #IamATraveler #wanderlust #travelgirl #tlpicks #passionpassport #traveldeeper #tandctravel #beautifuldestinations #huffpostgram #outdoors #livetravelchannel #timeoutsociety #travelstoke #natgeo #lonelyplanet #peoplecreatives #theweekoninstagram #photooftheday #lovetravel #traveler #sunset #TheImage #VSCO #VisualAmbassadors #Original_Experiences #LifeOfAdventure
  • "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself" -Gautama Buddha . Hey guys, sorry for being M.I.A. 🙏🏻 In this crazy hectic digital ego driven world we live in, i often forget that behind our profiles there are humans, beautifully imperfect humans, made of blood, joy, pain, passions and emotions, and I'm also one of them! Life is great but I had a few shitty days lately and when that happens I shut the world out and turn within myself to understand and listen to what my heart has to say, which turns out to be "love yourself" every time. I owe a lot of my strength and self love to Meditation, it has played a very important role in my life in the past few years, it taught me to control my thoughts more, to deal with pain better, to be kinder to myself and to keep my ego in check. Without practicing it I think I would be in a very different (and much darker) place today. I will talk to you about it more over the time as it's something that truly changed my life in a time I really needed it(writing a blog post about it!) and could be of use to some of you ✨ What's your way to deal with your shitty days? Love —S P.s so sorry I haven't replied all your messages and comments yet, I will very soon I promise! • • • #Thailand #TheImage #VSCO #VisualAmbassadors #Pink #Original_Experiences #LifeOfAdventure #ArtOfVisuals #EarthPix #EarthFocus #DiscoverGlobe #BestVacations #TheGlobeWanderer #AGameOfTones #Hotel #HeaterCentral #BeautifulDestinations #RoamThePlanet #MoodyGrams #ExploreToCreate #DiscoverEarth #WanderOut #StayAndWander #Canon_Photos #Awesome_Photographers #mycanon
