I felt the sweat drip from the tip of my nose. My ears were like a dog's, perking up at every sound surrounding me. My feet were primed to dash while being soft as a raccoon in the night. I was in the forest... Or was I in an abandoned building? I was where I belonged. I am an explorer; I belong everywhere. I carefully trek through my next steps while staying quietly appreciative of my surroundings.

My name is Nicola, I am an explorer. I plan on sharing all of those adventures with you in the form pictures and stories. I can't wait to bring you along with me and give you a little piece of my world. 

Discovery is found one step at a time. One step at a time until you reach a breakthrough.

This is not the best picture, but it shows me about to head into a place I am going to explore.


I hope to help everybody discover what they might be afraid or unable to do themselves. I will be covering many topics: photography, travel, music, exploration, occasional money stuff, and maybe a meme or two every once in a while. If you'd like to hear about a certain topic, then comment and let me know. 

More about me. I used to be homeless due to some family issues. I know what it's like to hit rock bottom and make it back up again. There is always opportunity in the world and always a way to grow. I want to focus on those positive things and share them with others too! If you follow my posts, you'll learn even more about me as time goes on.

You can check out my previous post about urban exploration, my main topic, on my blog page. Go check it out!!

Anyways, I'll leave this post here. Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoy my upcoming content!
