I always loved the photo but its significance has changed for me a little while ago, in more than one way.

Sometimes we have to experience hard times to appreciate the things we take for granted. And sometimes hard times make things special and precious because we know how much pain we had to endure to reach them.
Moving to the other side of the world taught me a lot about myself and how much you can achieve when you believe in yourself and in your dreams. Yes it's hard, yes it sucks at times and yes - you leave your old life behind. Moving to NZ was way different from moving to the UK, from where I could board a plane and be home within a couple of hours, for little money. It's a tough choice, and it's always going to be tough. But it's also what feels right.

This is Carla (meant to be Karl, after the European emperor "Karl (or Charles) the Great", but turned out to be a girl 😊), my second Monarch butterfly 🦋
Witnessing the metamorphosis from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly was weird and wonderful. Strange in what ways nature works!
