A week ago everyone was in complete and genuine bliss when spring seemed to have finally overpowered one of the coldest winters I have ever experienced, only to be shut down a couple of days later by another wave of unbearable cold and more snow. At this point I genuinely think that I have forgotten what warmth and sunshine feel like and the lack of vitamin D is starting to affect my generally rather positive and happy-go-lucky mood. Making the best of what is this never-ending winter I stepped up my layering game because at some point jumpers just don’t do the job anymore. Layering a chique oversized blazer with a warm cotton turtleneck has become a look I am rather fond of as it gives me the feeling of being bundled up but still delivering elegant vibes, which is important in my job. Especially when having a day of meetings and interviews ahead, including one of Austria’s most popular comedians. Save to say I was a bit nervous but he turned out being the most casual and down to earth guy who I chatted with about tour life, his family, broken furniture and the perks of feeling home in more than one place.
I never get tired of emphasising how grateful I am that I get to do what I love most for a living and that apparently I am doing a rather good job at it. It has made me become so incredibly confident in myself, my abilities and my place in this world that I have even started to stop caring about my flaws and weaknesses. It amazes me how much doing something you love changes you as a person and how important it is to accept yourself for who you are. I also believe that my confidence has started to reflect in my attitude and the way I approach the world and people in general. When finding yourself you suddenly find all that you need in the world to feel settled and good as well. Happiness is key.
