  • “Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't. It made everythign harder. Honestly, getting out for ten minutes a day helped more than I thought it would. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”

  • “Cuando llegas a un país nuevo, todo es extraño. El idioma, las costumbres, la comida. Te sientes perdido. Yo también. Pero poco a poco, vas encontrando tu sitio. No te compares con los demás. Cada uno tiene su ritmo. Busca ayuda. Habla con gente que haya pasado por lo mismo. Y no te olvides de tu idioma, de tus raíces. Eso te mantendrá entero.”

  • “For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was a few years back. The first winter. That was my life. I wake up most days without that dread. It changes. It really does. Sending love.”
