Thank you Ania 🙂

Thanks so much Bernie!

Thanks so much Sara! I completely agree, it’s amazing what can happen once you put yourself out there and open yourself to opportunities you never knew existed!

Thanks so much Caroline! Funnily enough I haven’t really entered many competitions since this one…I think it would be a bit too hard to beat haha.

So great to hear Yasmin! It definitely feels like now it all fell into place but I left out a lot of the story where times were a little tough living abroad. All worth it though! Best of luck with your new blog 🙂

So lovely to hear from you Eva! I know exactly what you mean about watching other people succeed perhaps faster than you or get better clients etc. It’s really a matter of staying focused on your own path because as it’s a creative industry, the career path is different for everyone! Definitely stick with it if it’s what you want to do, perhaps try to find your own unique style or product and approach clients 🙂 I offer mentoring if you’re keen to chat further about ways to take your career forward! Just email me via hello@thewanderinglens.com if you want to chat!

Thanks so much! Looking back I’m definitely a believer in fate too, it’s just a matter of trying to enjoy the ride and not stressing too much about decisions along the way 🙂

Great to hear Tina!

Absolutely! What was your dream career at 18?

Hooray! Good luck for the competition 🙂

Thanks so much Helene, really appreciate you taking the time to comment 🙂

So exciting Sally! Congratulations on your guidebook feature, that’s huge! Hard work always pays off 🙂
