20 seconds to sell yourself

That’s right, your resume. If there ever was hard-selling, it is now. A piece of paper that contains your life, your learnings, your achievements (whether or not you have any). It tweaks and moulds and screams and boasts. Probably the shallowest piece of paper, probably the most fake; it’ll probably make or break your life. 

So here I am, editing mine for the umpteenth time. Even more than the job hunting process, what agitates me is that I’m supposed to sell myself outright on “achievements” that really don’t define me. 

No wonder they call us SELL OUTS.

Welcome to my blog, The Shooting Star. I’ve been called a storyteller, writer, photographer, digital nomad, "sustainability influencer," social entrepreneur, solo traveller, vegan, sustainable tourism consultant and environmentalist. But in my heart, I’m just a girl who believes that travel - if done right - has the power to change us and the world we live in.

I'm waiting to hear your thoughts on this post:
