Emily Szajda

Big Time Journey of a Small Town Girl Emily Szajda

Leaving behind the lies that spiraled out of control - and unaware of the magic awaiting - Emily leapt into the dark chasm of uncertainty. Knowing fully well there were absolutely no guarantees, Emily boarded the plane to Belgium.

Waking up from the daze she was living in, Emily realized her life was a complete lie. Her heart was crushed to find out her boyfriend got engaged the day before he broke up with her. This figurative slap in the face was a clear sign Emily needed to take her life back. She had hit a turn in the road and what lie ahead, would unveil itself in time. Tossing her fears aside, she set out on an adventure.

Moving abroad wasn't easy. Leaving behind the familiarity and security she once called home, she redefined her life, trekking across Europe, realizing her dreams and finding opportunities in the most spectacular places.
