Moving taught me independence. Being in another country at the age of 18 is growing up fast. I'm learning to make decisions, take responsibility, and believe in myself even when it's difficult. But at the same time, I don't lose my lightness. I still like to dream, try new things, make mistakes, and rise again. I believe that an image is not a mask, but a reflection of the inner world. Through style, I show my emotions, my mood, my courage. And now, when my life is just starting to gain momentum, I feel the main thing — I create myself. And this is the strongest feeling of all.

My name is Sofia, I am 18 years old and I have recently started a new chapter of my life in France. The move was both a challenge and an inspiration for me. Everything has changed — the language around, the people, even the air seems different. Sometimes it's scary, sometimes lonely, but there is a special energy in this feeling of novelty. It's like I'm piecing myself together in pieces, discovering new aspects of my character. By nature, I am bold, although I don't always show it immediately. Tenderness and audacity mingle in me. I can be calm and Observant, and I can be bright and visible. I like to feel in control of my image, my style, my mood. I don't like to be "like everyone else", it is important for me to stand out, even if it takes courage.

Tattoos are my separate love. They have depth and character. I like the idea that the drawing on the skin is a story that you choose to carry with you. It can be a symbol of strength, memory or simply aesthetics. The tattoo for me is about inner freedom and confidence. It's a way of telling the world: "I know who I am.» Hairstyles and makeup are another way to express yourself. I love experimenting: changing colors, shapes, textures, playing with lines and shades. Today I can be minimalist and natural and tomorrow, shiny, with an emphasis on the eyes or lips. I like the feeling of transformation, where the image changes not only the appearance, but also the inner state. It's like art, only the canvas — I am myself.

My dream is to connect life with beauty and self—expression. I want to develop in the field of tattoos, hairstyles and makeup, to create images that help people feel more confident and bolder. It's important to me not just to change my appearance, but to inspire me to be myself. I dream of opening my own space or working in such a way that my work is recognized and appreciated. Traveling, growing, not being afraid to experiment, and keeping that courage in myself is what's really important to me.
