“If you want your life to change and evolve a bit, sometimes you have to take a step into the unknown and see what happens. Because, if you don’t do anything, for sure you won’t have anything.” ~ Ladislas Chachignot.
Travel and living creatively often go hand in hand, with many artists all over the world moving to different countries to get inspiration and further their careers.
But what if you’re too scared to make that first step? And what actually happens when you take the plunge, move to a city in a different country and start trying to carve out a creative career for yourself?

But how did he summon up the courage to take this huge first step…
And how is he managing to support himself and find new clients in this new environment?
