Why does one start a blog?
It is obvious – for a possibility of self-expression, to share and interact with others.
About me?
It is impossible to sum up one’s life (and thus mine too) in a few sentences ….and as I am still a work in progress this blog will hopefully help me sort out my thoughts and ideas and bring out the inner workings of my mind. The posts here are not very organised nor do they stick to a specific subject or idea. They come randomly following momentary inspiration.
What is the one thing that keeps me going?
Curiosity about how it will all end, a disgust for giving up on life.
What makes me tick?
Learning, meeting new folks, finding out that we are not alone. Well, maybe there are still things I am about to discover …. each day is a new possibility.
What are my interests and specialties?
Languages and music, sounds in general, the fact is that sounds are very distracting to me.
Images (either still or moving) – images evoke feelings, memories and incite imagination. Today’s technology makes it simple for us to take pictures, to grab images and store them for later enjoyment and remembering.
A life’s traveller, a soul explorer, a thinker and a linguist with a lot to learn still I will be happy to meet anyone with a kind heart and an open mind.
P.S. It is hard to talk about oneself here. For more information, use email.

Parece que hay solamente una pregunta
. A ver si entiendo como esto funciona…
ciao! where would I find your Italy posts?
Hello Michael. First you can see my header pic which is a photo of the island San Giulio on Lago d’Orta, then if you click on Travel you can see some more pics of spots in Nothern Italy
OK, I will dive into it
wow, I really enjoy these photos and not just your Italy posts..very cool
Thank you Michael
Thank GOD am linked up again..!!!
Am glad to be here Paula ..!!

Thank you P-B
This is an honour for me.

Anne
Nice to meet you to Anne
It is so nice of you to take time and leave comments here.
Pleasure is all mine.
Have a wonderful week!
You too Anne. I admire your sense of balance
I am too much of a hedonist to achieve that any time soon and I should. I’ve checked out that three greens smoothie you are featuring. I tried something like that a few years ago. These days I prefer bacon and eggs
Well, next week I will live more like you I promise
Stunning!
Gracias por entrar a mi blog, estaremos en contacto…, Buenas Noches…

Nice work, Paula. Thanks for visiting.
Thank you Allan, I will be back
thanks for taking an interest
There are good days and there are not so good days. I had 3 amazing ones… today I realize that everything comes to bite you in the end.
I am doing fine, but I am a bit depressed mainly because I did not sleep so well and well the usual.
I had to write something, post anything maybe proof-of-existence for myself.
You can always talk, if it helps…
I blog to discover that part of myself that I may be aware of or was there but long forgotten. It’s a great way to explore our thoughts and express them. It also an amazing way to connect with others. You have a generous heart and a very creative mind. Thanks for sharing..have a great day!
Hello IT
Your words are reaching right into my heart. Thank you for that, and for being part of my WP corner. Bless you!
very nice to “meet” you! It’s been such a pleasure perusing your blog!

Hi Paula, I’ve nominated you the Inspiring Award. http://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/2012/08/15/something-else-happened-instead-2/
Nice to meet you Ms. Paula! Like you, I enjoy traveling and meeting new people. I think we are all different and yet can carry similar interests. I may not get a chance to travel everywhere and meet everyone but your blog can help me know someone in Croatia (right?) and see another part of our big world. Keep up your great work in your blog!
Thank you very much. I promise to visit your blog as soon as I get well. Best wishes to you!
OK…I hope you are feeling better soon Ms. Paula
Your new avatar in black’nd white is greee8…

Je suis heureuse de t’annoncer que je t’ai décerné une récompense ” One Lovely Blog Award ” :–) clique sur le lien pour récupérer ta récompense :
http://dicietdailleursphotography.wordpress.com/2012/09/07/one-lovely-blog-award/
Merci Marie-Charlotte. Je t’ai repondu sur ton blog.. Ici dans mon blog il y a plusieurs posts ou j’explique mes raisons pour ne pas accepter des recompenses
. Bon weekend!
Je viens te lire tes posts au sujet des récompenses et je te comprends tellement
Sache que je te l’ai décerné parce que je le pense vraiment. Bon week-end et à bientôt
Je te remercie Marie-Charlotte, il m’est important que tu as lu mes posts
. Cela parle bien de toi. J’espere que tu vas bien et que tu es contente avec ton boulot… Je sais que tu n’es plus le guide, comme moi non plus…maintenant je suis traductrice et ca devient un peu trop stressant quelques fois…
Quel magnifique métier
mais c’est très stressant, j’ai fait quelques traductions et je sais à quel point celà peut être stressant (respecter les délais par exemple). Tout comme toi j’ai fait des études de langues (anglais et allemand) et aujourd’hui je suis webmaster. Ca me plait beaucoup
Ca doit etre tres interessant
Bonne chance Marie-Charlotte et bon repos ce weekend. Bisous.
Hi there I just stumbled across your blog and liked it alot. I’m on a similar personal journey (hence the blog!) Thanks for posting and drop by sometime. Peace. x
Thank you
I like your blog too.
inspiring images
Thanks Brenda
Hi Paula! Just letting you know that you are my top commenter! (30 comments, go girl!) So as a thank you, i am putting your face (and link) on my home page for everyone to see! I chose to put this picture in your about page, in case you don’t like that let me know, and suggest another picture if you like!
What’s not to like!?
It is ok honey
I had to ask….
Great then! I ‘ll be seeing you everyday now!!!
Well, it was your choice sweetie
and it will not be my fault if you get sick of seeing my face every day
hahahahaha, not gonna happen!
For the record, and since we are playing with numbers, after this top commenter thing, from 30 comments, your score went up to 42! You have a gift!
Are you saying that I left you 12 more comments today? Can’t be right! :S
Yeap, It is! I am telling you, you have it!
Yes, i know what you mean about pity comments! And trust me, your personality shows! That is the perpose on the bottom line, having fun blogging!
Sorry for talking so much about food
, it was out of my control
Bravo pour ton très bon blog , et ton très bon Français Paula
tu est doué
Je crois que je suis doueE
je blague
Ne t’en fais pas!
Et merci bien Thierry. Tu es toujours gentil
Check Paula! You nailed it, and i am in it!
Thaaaaaaaanks! Your Goodreads section is empty though, is it supposed to be like that?
Thanks sweetie
Nope, goodreads is supposed to have four books attached :S
I truly enjoy getting to know people with the mind frame that you have, I really hope that I get to be able to see the growth of this blog as an extension of your own personal growth.
Nice Photography mam although I could not finish to see all the photos yet…. In a Word they were just awesome…. And I want to say some thing about your eyes,
“Just take a look through my eyes
There’s a better place
somewhere out there
Just take a look through my eyes
Everything changes
You’ll be amazed what you’ll find
If you look through my eyes”
Thank you Ahmed. It is rewarding to meet people like you
. These verses you wrote here touched me. Where do they come from?
Its my pleasure & they come from a song: “Phil Collins_Look Through My Eyes”
But I have found such depth in your eyes than the Phil collins lyrics, Hope in future can see Photography that will be only on your eyes
Hi Ahmed
Are you saying you prefer photos of my eyes to the ones of other subjects I take? The header pic is a self-portrait, but usually most of photos of me are taken by other people. I want to share in this blog as many photos as I can that are taken by me
So you want to deprive me to see your green eyes photos
okay as you wish Paula :O
Of course not … I am going to upload more pics of them with my face (if you don’t mind) on my gravatar. How do you feel about that?
thank you for visiting my blog and for clarity regarding “saldage” . . . wondering if the misspelling invites a personalization? Curious about your statement regarding Enya.
Me encanta cada una de las respuestas a las preguntas que te hiciste.
Que afortunado haber visto tu blog, mi meta de tomar fotos por un ño terminó hace unos dias pero igual voy a seguirlo usando para que sigamos en contacto.
Que buenas fotos tienes tu también!
Hola Pablo
Te agradezco mucho de haber leido mi pagina. Dime que piensas hacer ahora que se termino tu proyecto? Te poneras otra meta aqui? Voy a ver con atencion tus otros “posts”. Saludos cordiales. Me encantaria quedar en contacto.
Thanks for the follow on my blog, Paula. I’m glad we’ve connected, and I will enjoy going through your posts also.
For You y dándote las gracias por tu trabajo.
http://campiquipugui.wordpress.com/una-visita/
Gracias, Josep por este pujoncito
. Me voy a esforzar mas, aunque esfuerzo no es palabra justa… siempre pense que hago este blog para mi y eso queda cierto, pero como puse en mi gravatar… estoy aqui para conectarme con la gente, y ahora dejame decir mas… para conectarme con la gente suficiente parecida a mi (para que no me moleste con su estupidez) y suficiente diferente para parecerme interesantes. Un abrazo para ti. Vuelve a vistarme pronto
x
Lo haré, no te quepa duda, lo que pasa es que muchas veces lo hago de manera silenciosa…
besos for you.

Greetings from Australia Paula,
I love your quite about “meeting anyone with a kind heart and open mind”, very beautiful words indeed. I’d love to visit your beautiful country, experience the culture and photograph the stunning Adriatic coast with its picturesque beaches and villages.
All the best and God bless
This means a lot Konstantine… Thank you. I have just stopped by your blog to see your name and your photos really impressed me .. I will comment on them over there
If you are interested in seeing the very few pictures I have of our coast and picturesque villages, I will be happy to point you to the links
. My best to you
Brilliant – love the clip
Thank you Kiwiskan
You have a very interesting blog and I look forward to following your posts!
Thank you so much Jackie .. I don’t know how I missed this comment of yours…
No problem! It happens. I’m still trying to figure out why WordPress randomly decides to unfollow people I’m following!
That can be annoying :S. Thank you Jackie. Please forgive me if I don’t pay you visit as much as I would like to … my life needs some sorting out right now.
No worries! I totally understand. I hope things get sorted out for you soon. Take care
