31-day writing challenge Day 2

 Today is the second day of this writing challenge and today`s topic is "Things that make you happy".

Let`s start with super honest hour. I`m not a very happy person nor have I really ever been. So figuring out what makes me happy can be a very difficult task for me. However, I`ve been thinking and I was fortunately able to come up with some things.

The first thing that makes me happy and is probably the most important to me: my cats. I have three adorable cats. Louie, Lexi and Diltus. They have been in my life for 4 and 5 years. I used to have another cat called Skrikhals, but he died last year, sadly. These cats are my whole life and I don`t know what I would do without them.

Another thing that makes me happy is traveling. I just wish I could be paid for traveling around the world. The reason why I love traveling is because you get the chance to meet so many new people, try new food, explore new cities and different cultures. I`ve currently been to 15 countries, but someday I hope I can visit them all, or at least as many as I can. It is also very important for me to travel. The reason being you can grow as a person. You learn a lot about yourself and how to adapt and react to different environments. You can learn what happens in every country and it is a way for you to stay involved and updated. Everybody should travel or at least live a year abroad.

The forest. Usually, I feel like people talk about how they like nature. I mean- I do too, but there`s just something specifically about the forest. Ever since I was a child, the forest have been a favorite place of mine. It might be because I grew up in the countryside and we had forests all around us. But the forest was the place for me to go whenever I was feeling sad or lost. It was and still is, the place I go to dream. A lot of my stories come from just walking around in the forest and get lost inside my head with all my thoughts and my big imagination. And when I come home, I`m a happier person.

The last thing I`m going to mention is design and creativity. Specifically good design. That can be everything from good architecture, interior design, fashion design to graphic design. It makes me happy to see design that works and can change people`s lives, because I want to have the power to do the same. I`m also a very creative person, so usually I have a dozen ideas or more for new projects. And I love finding inspiration on either Pinterest, Instagram or Tik Tok. There are so many talented people in the world. Sometimes I`m envious, but it`s also a good opportunity to find inspiration or if I wanted to, I could find poeple to collaborate with.

Oh, and baby animals. Basically, every baby animal. Baby elephant, baby red panda, baby tiger, baby seal, baby penguin, baby goat, baby pig, kittens, kittens, kittens.
