I travel. A lot. To the point that I sometimes forget where I was last week. The one constant thing throughout my travels is meeting extraordinary people and living extraordinary moments. Most of the time, they seem futile, encounters are brief and moments only last some minutes. These experiences have shown me that the extraordinary most often is found in the ordinary. Being or living something extraordinary is not about fame, monetary values, success or status, it’s about perspective, taking a step back and looking at things from a different point of view, living moments and engaging with people that touch my soul and fill my heart with contentment and peace.
This led to the non-existing word of Xordinary, the mix of the extraordinary and the ordinary. And voilà, the name of my blog was born. My idea of sharing these stories with you is not only so that I don’t forget about them but most importantly to remind us all that we are surrounded by the extraordinary constantly, and that we only need to open our eyes to see and live it, make up our own stories and memories about it to live extraordinary lives every day.
