Hi, I’m Solas, born and raised in Co. Wicklow, Ireland. I lived in Edinburgh, Scotland for many of my adult years, but illness forced me to move back home to my parents in 2018. 

I live with multiple chronic illnesses. 

Depression, anxiety and PTSD for decades now. 

Chronic Fatigue fi got in 2017 after catching a flu virus.  

I got diagnosed with Diabetes around my 18th Birthday. It's not type 1 or 2 but a genetic type called Mody3. 

I wanted to take this time to introduce myself to you and share a little about my story so far. I am currently writing this from my new home in italy.

When I planned this trip I expected to have 2k in my bank account but since life always brings challenges I ended up leaving with only €400 in my bank account.

I have always considered myself a lucky person, but 2 days before I was due to depart my car started acting up and one of the doors stopped locking. Not ideal when you plan to sleep in your car in unknown places, alone!
