Brace yourselves people for this is one of those posts where I`m praising the easy reachable pleasures of life! Yes. Again.

I saw Maleficent the other day (we`ll talk about the subject tomorrow) and yet again, I saw this metaphor – enjoy the simple things, like the beautiful nature. Also, yesterday I`ve read an article about Arianna Huffington and the milestones she encountered in her life.

Got me thinking at my own milestones. Not in the traditional kind of way –  entering college, graduated, find a life partner but in a more self-empowering / liberator kind of way.

You see? Ever since I was a kid, I grew up surrounded by…let`s say  judgmental  people. I went to a high-school where if you were seen riding a bicycle in the morning and you did not have a private driver…let`s say that these things were not meant to put you on the popular list.

 .

For years I was a slave to many misconceptions. For years I believed that my happiness lies in a bag or in some clothing item (still love them, don`t get me wrong, but their are not my focus anymore) until one particular day, three years ago. I had recently moved to Bucharest and I was beginning to realize that I left my city to come in a judgmental free one, but ended up in a micro world that is more judgmental and shallow than the worlds I lived in before.

 .

That was the moment when I said fuck-it and decided to live for myself #notaseasyasitseems. My first step was to buy a bicycle like I always dreamt of doing in high-school.

And like in any story about real life – saying it was easy –  doing it was… not that easy…And so, my search for the perfect bicycle began…

*look up for the beginning of the story

 .

After a lot of search and bicycles seen, I discovered Bicitalia a few weeks ago and I was delighted to discover that this brand carries vintage like bicycles, like the Fascona donna I am riding today, produced by a cool Italian brand – Vicini, in every color you might love and at really affordable prices. And they have cool baskets to carry our bags in <3 <3 <3

 .

Ohhh, I`ll try to look so poised on the bicycle…but until then, I still have to decide which one to buy. Bicitalia`s staff were very polite and explained to me the difference between many models but I want us to decide together so this Fascona donna is the first one I saw. In the next weeks I`ll show you a few more and we`ll decide together, ok?

 .

Going back to the simple things and learning that the real beauty of life lies in the easy reachable moments and experiences was indeed an important milestone for me and I must say, riding a bicycle is so French and so Catherine Baba #cantwait
