My mother has always told me: "Valeria, the world does not revolve around you, you revolve around it" these words have marked me throughout my life because they have made me see that I am one more inhabitant of the planet. This does not make me less special, on the contrary, it has given me a very great responsibility, because it implies respecting others, learning from their cultures, creating connections and getting to know many places in this world in which I am touring.
Each trip implies for me to expand the borders, to understand that we are all the same, but at the same time very different. It also implies decision because choosing to go to one place or another totally changes the perspective of the trip. It is vital to enjoy the road whether by car, by plane, even on foot there are always hidden details that want to be discovered. Finally, for me it is necessary to take photos, because that way I can share my perspective of the world and return to each place I have been thanks to the memories.
I am convinced that we have to dream of knowing the world, because knowing others we know ourselves better.
