Synopsis
Between farewells and new places, I learned to grow — carrying the marks of the past and the hope for the future.
It was only the beginning of a long journey.”
“In my first book, I shared my childhood — a time marked by pain and abuse that left scars forever, but also by happy memories on the farm and the constant support of my sister, who has always been present in every stage of my life.
I spoke of the changes, the losses, and the inner battles that shaped me.
Today, in this second chapter, I pick up my story from that point, showing how life continued to test me — but also to teach me to be stronger.”
