Hello! Thought it was about time to put my smiley face to this passion project! This is me...Maryam. I'm a passionate creative entrepreneur who loves zagging when the rest of the world is zigging*. So now you've seen my smiley face, let me take you on the journey that has led to me embarking on this passionate project. Let's start in Spain...following my heart, after an amazing exchange trip to Barcelona in my early teens, I chose to study languages at university. I just knew this was my key to open the door on my dream of travelling and exploring the world and it's people. Little did I realise just how this would shape my life!

And it starts with you! What a revelation! It’s been a while, I know! In all honesty, I have been writing for a while but I wasn’t brave enough to post my heart-felt musings.

Enough was enough! It was time to fly free. Time for a total rewiring. So many years of striving for “being perfect”. But wow wow wow! How amazing it feels to just be. To let go. And to let life happen imperfectly.
Deciding to follow my heart on my Moroccan adventure has been one helluva journey. The minute I said yes to that new adventure, the minute amazing things began to happen! My journey twisted and turned in ways I could never have imagined. It still surprises me every single day!
