About

My name, as you have seen underneath all the posts is Nikita Vladescu. I am excited to share the journey that led me to creating this blog. In this space, I will go into detail about my blog and offer some personal information about myself. Don’t worry—I’ll keep it brief ! I would just like to share a few important things with the people who read my blog.

Where I started

I grew up in Durban, and later as I got older moved to the vibrant city of Cape Town. After high school, I felt torn between studying and exploring the world. Life in Cape Town is beautiful and abundant, but I knew there was more to be discovered around the world. Like many, my parents couldn’t fund my studies in university so I chose to start working. In this choice I felt eager to gain life experience and eventually make my way to university. From studying yachting, to being a waiter and now an Au pair living in Belgium. I’ve gathered experiences, stories, and lessons that I would love to share with you. Thinking about it, I have faith that this blog will be a part of my journey too.

Purpose

As I have mentioned, this blog was born out of my passion for writing- and a little encouragement from my dad. He is very business orientated, and during our phone calls, he would often ask, ‘Nikita, have you posted a blog about your travels?’. Eventually, I realized he had a great point. First, I’ve been given this ability to write. Second, I’ve been given the opportunity to travel. If I can use my natural talent to share my unique experiences, I can positively impact those around me.

Where I am going

With only a year to prepare, I will be attempting to fund my own studies for the year of 2026. This is my goal and what I have set my heart on for my future. I want my readers to truly believe, through my journey, that with Jesus by your side and a positive mindset, anything is possible! It’s not about where you start, but how you choose to shape the end of your story that really matters.

Thank you for joining me and I can’t wait to share more with you!
