Hoping you enjoy them!
day 1: •PACT• 
Ever since I am a little kid, there’s been a silent unspoken pact in between me and animals (and nature). I grew up by the forest with lots of deers and wild animals, and I constantly went on my own to watch them in silence. I sometimes day dream that I can understand them. I wish we could speak sometimes, but some others there’s really no need for words 🐻 -

day 2 • FRESH• -
Spring and autumn felt the absolute best in Spain where me and my sister @alicastroart grew up. In spring we would run around fresh fields of flowers. During autumn we would roll around fresh fallen leaves and all sorts of colours and sounds would fill up our songs and happiness. 🍋 it was the fresh scent of flowers, grass, rain and crackling leaves that were the greatest about it. -
4: •TEAM•🎏
-
My family was not wealthy. But we had toys and a happy childhood. I remember that every year my parents would make us fill up an empty box with our toys and clothes to donate to kids that could not have such things, so we could share with them too. We would go with food, toys and clothes to near orphanages and give them to the kids over there. I remember it feeling strange when I had to put my things in those boxes to give away when younger, but the moment we gave them to the kids, their smiles and cheers made everything shine. It made it feel like we were the best team ever 🎏 -
day 5: •THUNDER•⚡️
-
From the very second the raindrops would start hitting the window, I’d feel this urge to tuck into a blanket and look outside the window. Other kids were scared of thunderstorms. I felt like it was the most amazing and magical thing in the universe. 
I remember once thinking that, if I ever could get to ask for one wish, I’d choose to become thunder. ⚡️ -
day 6: •POWER•💥 As a kid, I dreamt of being able to make all sorts of choices of my own and changing the world into a better place. I wanted to have superpowers when I grew up and help all sorts of humans, nature and animals in all sorts of ways. 
Now I realize that as an adult how much of a power I actually carry. And I also realized that helping change is a power we are all so lucky to have.
