hello to everyone and anyone watching! 👋🏾 today’s video is my long-awaited porto vlog!! i traveled solo to porto, a city in portugal, for my 24th birthday (kind of like a gift for myself). i went for several reasons that i explain in the vlog, but one of the main reasons was because i needed to sort my head out and find inspiration after feeling a bit crap for a long time about life and having fears were getting older.

this trip definitely gave me the inspiration i needed: exploring a new city with such a beautiful and vibrant culture, as well as stepping out of my comfort zone to party with strangers, and spending quality time alone. these things all made this trip so special and magical and reminded me of how amazing i can be, and that it’s not too late for me have a fun and exciting life just because i’m in my mid 20s!

enjoy following along on my journey to finding joy and hope for my life and future, while in portugal, in the time span of a weekend. if you enjoyed this video, please give it a like, subscribe already, if you’ve ever been to porto and how you found it!! ❤️🇵🇹💚

i love all 1,693 of you! ❤️

remember to always stay true to yourself and be nice to everyone,
taja xx
