Basically this was me an hour ago. Never blogged in this rhythm before but it`s for an Awesome project so here it goes.
Tricky subject – this Freedom issue – for each one of us can mean different things.
For me, freedom is maintaining the ability to be myself and act accordingly no matter the situation. Freedom means being able to remain humble no matter where life may take you. Sure, freedom may also mean working my butt off and affording to be not only independent but also affording to take care of others. Freedom means being grateful for what you have and living the moment.

However, today I give you another Freedom moment. Well, technically Best Value gives it to you. To us actually.
Yeah, I know you`ve been waiting for this so let`s get straight to the case:
Best Value has it`s own idea about the Summer of Freedom and invited me in a city break…with…with..with ONE OF YOU!!!
We don`t know the destination, not the leaving hour and not even when. Well, I suspect it`s this month.
More over, our city break luggage will be enriched with products from Best Value`s duty free shop – luggage, glasses, perfumes, cosmetics Sure, we have to behave with common sense. I know, I too would want to take their whole shop in that city break and then home with me #tadaa
All you have to do is tell me in a comment what Summer of Freedom means for you
I`ll select the winner on MONDAY and you have to be prepared because both of us we`ll get the info (destination, leaving days nor hours ) with maximum 2 days before we depart.
Let me tell you that this is one of a hell cool giveaway. It`s like we`re in a fashionable spy chick lit.
Now, brace yourselves, leave me a comment and stay tuned for Monday.
I wonder who would it be. A city break with one of my followers and some new It Items from Best Value for both of us.
Yeah, this does settle for another Freedom definition.
#SummerOfFreedom; #BestValue
UPDATE
We have decided – the answer we loved best was Catalina Ciobanu`s (number 6) definition of Summer of Freedom
Thank you everybody and stay tuned because pretty soon we`ll have another awesome giveaway. Ohhh, I wish I could find a giveaway where I can give the prize to everyone. I`ll keep searching. Not giving up on this.
Catalina, you`ve just WON and you`re coming with meeee . To God`s now where. It will be glamorous. They have assured me.
FREEDOM means HAPPYNES! I’ve never felt happy in my life…so where is my freedom gone?
Summer of Freedom Baby, is never Having to say you’re sorry!
Whooohoooo! Tuned for Monday, then 😀 Cant’t wait !
For me, Summer of Freedom means Sun, traveling, and the last but not the least, lots of frozen Cocktails 😀 I am already dreaming about relaxation
For me freedom stands for much more than just the right to act however I choose – it stands for securing to everyone an equal opportunity for life, liberty and the pursuit of love and happiness ;).
A Summer of Freedom is a road trip with your best friends, where getting lost is the best scenario. And wearing flip flops!
I remember that i read few years ago about the The Freedom Summer project that took place in Mississippi in the summer of 1964. There was great hardship during the summer, but there were also successes. As a result of this project the percentage of black voters increased, and students who attended the Freedom Schools showed greater confidence in themselves.
So, i supose that for me Summer of Freedom it’s about freedom of speaking, freedom of not being afraid to be me, freedom of helping others without expecting anything in return, freedom to love and be loved and of course the freedom to be happy, because only by practicing compassion day by day we can be free.
Thank you!

Dear Ana, I am doing my MBA in Barcelona for two years and at the moment I am in Switzerland for my summer internship. My last year has been a roller coaster from all points of view because quit my job, left my wonderful flat in Bucharest and moved to Barcelona where ive studied my ass off, traveled for my projects and got my ass kicked by my colleagues that come from banking when it came to finance. Now, freedom for me, is to just say fuck it, take a bag already packed and leave in a city break without any planning, any thinking… nothing and have tons of fun. Good luck with your projects and have fun in the city break! Te pup, Andreea
Summer of freedom means to me my last summer before being an adult (hopefully a responsable one).
My summer of freedom means reading 5 books per week, watching the best 250 movies ever made (as my good friend IMDB says), travelling, learning a new language, discovering hidden places in Bucharest and developing my artistic hobbies (such as making collages) … from my bed 🙂
My Summer of Freedom has only 25 more days left and I plan on living them to the fullest!
Sending out virtual hugs,
Laura
Libertatea este viata
Summer rock’s!
“Summer of Freedom” is not a destination and not even a season, it’s a state of mind! It’s sometimes being at home in the free days and not feel out of trend for that or packing in 15 min for a surprise escape with the one you love. It’s smiling everyday simply for being alive and do your best to make it count! It’s a Friday kind of Monday and a Spring kind of Autumn, it’s seaside in the Winter time and coffee all the way!
Nice ideea, a real summer escape. Xoxo
Summer freedom : hhmm for me looks like a runaway week-end with my hubby, without a clear route or a perfect determined programe, just doing whatever we want! No kidd, no worry, no work just having fun and feeling free!
Summer freedom to me means Sundays in Bucharest, when everyone is out of town and I can enjoy the silence and the streets without being bothered by noise, just being by myself in a place that looks familiar yet so new. The joy of discovering your true self in a place so close to home – that makes me feel free.
Freedom is having no regrets for the downs and living, loving madly all your ups.
Freedom is acting like a crazy bitch and liking so much that you don’t even see the awful looks on the ones that pass you by
Pentru mine libertatea inseamna chiar momentul acesta, in care pot sa scriu si sa ma bucur de aceasta dupa-amiaza ploioasa alaturi de o cana de cafea. Consider ca libertatea este cel mai pretuit dar, pe care trebuie sa il constientizez clipa de clipa si sa ma bucur cat pot de mult de acest lucru si totodata sa il transform intr-un stil de viata benefic. Libertatea inseamna sa-i pot face fericiti pe cei din jurul meu, iar rasplata vine prin privirile care le primesc de la ei, pline de seninatate si fericire. Pot spune ca libertatea este sansa de la viata pe care o primesc zi de zi, faptul ca respir ma determina sa spun ca sunt o persoana libera si care doreste sa isi manifeste libertatea la cote maxime prin scopuri definite, impliniri, dorinte, si de ce nu, planuri de vacante care s-au indeplinit. Libertatea sunt eu! Libertatea inseamna incredere in propriul potential si ce pot face cu el!
Summer of freedom means grabbing your favorite perfume, books and sun glasses, throwing them in a suitcase and never look back.
Summer of Freedom = eyes on the sky, body in the sun an mind…away from daily things 😉
summer of freedom = trying something new for the first time such as a last minute getaway in a peaceful & quiet yoga resort on an exotic sunny island with a wide wild beach near by 🙂
Hello A! Summer of Freedom means living your life(your summer) the way you want, the way you imagine it should be taking every risk and every emotion you could have, good or bad, it doesn’t matter because it’s our life and we are the ones who can decide how we what to live and what kind of persons we want to be!
Have a nice day!
Summer of freedom is when you have a break from work, when you can wear whatever you want, you can be as weird as you want and not thinking that you have to wake up at 6 am and put a suit, a white shirt and black shoes. Summer is basically freedom. P.S.: I would love to go on a city break with you! 🙂
Summer of freedom is for me each summer (that is usually splitted in 2 weeks of holiday- the maximum period I am allowed at work to miss and also short escapades I do in the week-end with my friends at seaside).So the less time I got to enjoy summer, the more I prepare all my wardrobe for each day-I buy swimsuits since winter:), I save some new hairstyles for my long hair, buy tons of accessories and load my camera batteries- I like to have nice memories so looking good and different in each day is important .Besides looks and pics, I try to do something different everytime I got home:go on unexplored beaches, test new fish restaurants, dive by night in the water, get the sunset on a cliff in Vama Veche, read books, shop &shop & shop and enjoy every minute, as I am back now in my office and can`t believe this fall weather has caught me unprepaired…all I stil got from the summer is my tan…
Freedom is a worryless tomorrow, the option to work on what you love and love what you work on.
Freedom is having no plan and enjoying whatever life serves you; it is finding peace and joy
in everything that is there for free and seldom taken for granted, but so valuable once it disappears.
Ador parfumul libertatii,are o nota aparte,plina de bucurii si tente fresh,culoare,armonie,ce mi se potrivesc de minune…iar,in tandem cu vara,anotimpul meu preferat,totul prinde contur ! Accesoriile se intrec in a ma binedispune si infrumuseta,iar marea,azurul,iubirea,bucuria lucrurilor simple,dar pline de efect,imi dau aripi,aripi sa zbor spre LIBERTATE !
This is my summer of freedom, driving through Europe with my love, seeing beautiful things and thinking of people who would love to see those things too but they can’t, so you bring them a little something 🙂 because freedom is being able to love
Summer of Freedom means what I experienced some years ago when I spent one month in Aegina, Greece and did absolutely what I wanted ( event pretended we got married to that summer blue eyed fling I had)
Ahhh, Summer of Freedom. It would mean spending relaxing time away from the city rush and gazing away into endless seas, sipping a cocktail under the shade of a straw umbrella in a comfy hammock that easily swings while the fresh summer breeze caresses the beach-wavy hair especially styled for that day. It would mean driving a vintage car aimlessly, while the swing music playing in the background fusions with the purring of the engine. Having the big road lights reflect one-by-one on the pearled car paint and the alcantara steering-wheel touch to go along with this soothing experience. It would mean taking your mind off anything else than yourself and your well-being and allow it to wander away for a while.
Summer of freedom means …yes…FREEDOM. My inner pixie is free to be sexy and hot today and a real prude tomorow. KissKiss
Summer of freedom is, for me, a trip through Europe in a sidecar motorcycle with my boyfriend, stopping anywhere we want to and sleeping in a tent all journey.
Freedom is about beeing true to your soul and to your self. It s about looking yourself in the face and loving you for who you are. No bullshit, no lies…so yes…i want freedom 🙂
My summer of freedom isn’t something you can reach in words, it’s more about how you feel, actually, how I feel. It seems like a cold, nice strawberry vanilla coconut smoothie somewhere in the middle of nowhere. Summer of freedom is exactly that strong connection with nature and reaching a state of inner balance. Like laying in a bed made of peonies 😀
Well, this freedom, as I told you, is rather a mix of senses and moods, sometimes unutterable, ineffable, which for me is the perfect thing, to concentrate on you and, with big words, to discover your inner self and “become something better”.
And last but not least, freedom is continuously meeting new people. Interracting and exchanging experiences, creating new connections with the ones who touch your soul.
Feed your soul and mind! Aim beyond your limits!
Kisses and hugs,
K
For me, freedom is the ability to dream big, to dream limitless, without the fear that your dream may not come true. Freedom is the state of mind that uncovers you the way to happiness. just feel free to follow! 🙂
For me, Summer of Freedom if, first and foremost, the summers of my childhood. No 3 months will ever be spent at the countryside, with my grandparents cuddling and spoiling me, playing chess on a blanket in the forest, while the cow dines on the green grass around us or reading all day long.
I still experience the freedom of summer, but in a controlled manner, taking advantage only of the weekends. I found, however, the perfect description for summer of freedom – adulthood version, in Mihail Sebastian’s “Jocul de-a vacanta” and it goes like this:
“I am a good man. Yes. Eleven months of the year. But I’ve got my month of freedom – and there is only one form – supreme! – of freedom: laziness. I have my laziness month. From August 1 to 31. And I do everything I can to not lose it. You’re agitated, fix the phones, you are in eternal motion, in an eternal waiting. I stand, watch, stay quiet and don’t expect anything …. If you knew what a big deal it is to not expect anything … Eleven months of the year I too am a rushed man, a worried man who talks, who resists, but after eleven months I go somewhere away from the city, and take laziness lessons from this stone, from that tree. Look at it. Don’t you find that there’s something royal in his indifference? Always near a tree I feel less humiliated. His stillness…”
I am adding it in Romanian as well, because it sounds so much better:
“sunt un om cumsecade. Da. Unsprezece luni pe an. Dar am şi eu luna mea de libertate – şi nu există decât o singură formă – supremă! – de libertate: lenea. Am şi eu luna mea de lene. De la 1 august la 31. Şi fac tot ce pot ca să n-o pierd. Dumneata te agiţi, vorbeşti, repari telefoane, eşti într-o veşnică mişcare, într-o veşnică aşteptare. Eu stau, privesc, tac şi nu aştept nimic… Dacă ai şti ce mare lucru este să nu aştepţi nimic… Unsprezece luni pe an sunt şi eu un om grăbit, un om crispat, care discută, care rezistă, dar după unsprezece luni mă duc undeva departe de oraş, să iau lecţii de lene, de la piatra asta, de la copacul ăla. Uită-te la el. Nu ţi se pare că e ceva împărătesc în indiferenţa lui? Totdeauna lângă un pom m-am simţit mai puţin umilit. Nemişcarea lui…”
Kisses,
Lux <3
Summer of Freedom actually for me is a permanent mindset and i live it in each season not only in summer. Freedom for me is to have courage to be authentic, to give love to as most as many people , to love yourself and thus to be Happy. I am sharing my freedom with people around me and i am doing efforts to embark in this mindset as many people as possible. Love truly , act naturally and be free!
I have always travelled. I have always crossed the borders. I have always found the freedom between words, beliefs and cultures.
The Summer of Freedom, you can find it in the middle of January, lying on the grass of a Thai temple, listening the silence and breathing the nature.
The Summer of Freedom, you can find it in a summer day, when someone calls /writes you to tell ‘ Hey young lucky Lady, tomorrow you are going in a trip with Ana Morodan. Are you available? ‘ and you say with all your heart ‘ Yes, of course!’ because nothing keeps you away to fulfil your dreams, because you are free! 🙂
My Best Regards to you Ana and Best Value Team!

Summer of Freedom = good roads , a speed car and surprising destinations.
A summer of freedom is a summer when you do whatever you want without regrets and enjoying every moment.
My summer of freedom means travel a lot, abroad or in the country. This means sit on the beach all day with messy hair because of the sea salt and the sand, with tanned face and without make-up, with slightly reddened skin but at the end of the day with my soul full of happiness because I realise that I am so beautiful and accompli, because freedom comes from little things. For me summer of freedom means to spend few days at a small cottage in Ramnicu Valcea, where I never been before, but where I am surrounded by wonderful people, some of them knowing there, without phone or internet connection. Summer of freedom means also to defeat my fear of jumping paragling over the Mediterranean Sea ( ohhh!!! <3 ). You can find freedom in everything that makes you happy, you can find freedom in your love, you can find freedom in your friends, parents, places, in a small and noisy boat that takes you in the middle of the sea, in food, in drinks ( that feel when you are at a party with your girls and drink a shot of kamikaze 😀 ).
Summer of freedom means do memories, smile, BE YOU and have no regrets!
For me summer already is freedom,but putted all together I would say is the perfect combination.I love freedom and I love summer.No matter where I go,even if the sea is my favourite these days,I’m happy.And when I am happy I feel the freedom.And when I sing I feel free,when I dance and when I smile.Summer of freedom is doing what I love and loving what I do.It means music and feeling crazy,going out and share love with my friends. And I always love being free due to my zodiac sign.Saggitarius.Freedom is happiness,freedom is part of me:)
Libertatea inseamna nesiguranta, curaj, iubirea, traire, haos si echilibru in acelasi timp, inseamna a crea, a pierde, a nu fi atasat de nimic si nici de tine sau de rezultat, inseamna sa oferi si sa poti sa te bucuri de orice, inseamna sa fi gata sa mori azi sau peste 1000 de ani. Libertatea e doar o idee.
For me summer of freedom means spending time with my loved ones,enjoying the hopefully good weather together.A road trip to a place I ‘ve never been,short jeans,t-shirt ,converse and waiting to discover the unknown
Summer of freedom for me: our elegant car, my husband driving, i’m seating next to him with no makeup, sunglasseas and a stupid smile on, a mixture of our favorite music, thinking about the delicious meals and cocktails that are waiting for us at our favorite place in Greece. Oh, and that feeling of lazyness included!
Summer of freedom is rooming wild with no or any destination, just enjoying the sun,the hot earth,the wind breeze, some good vibes in your ears and watching the sunset..withought thinking about tomorrow.. and for sure, with a “beautiful” person by your side..doing and thinking whatever you like and in these moments of peace one can really breathe the air..and think there’s no one else in the world.. that is true freedom..in summer or anyother time.
Summer of Freedom means to be able to accept your freedom and make the most of it, to leave every insecurity behind and to embrace every right you have as a human being.
Summer of Freedom means for me the fact you need to accept your freedom and make the most of it, by leaving every insecurity behind and act as you like: even if that means working hard, running naked on the beach or reading a good book in your own bed.
Freedom is COURAGE, free EXPRESSION, freedom is POWER. Every summer has a story they said…but summer of freedom is more than a story…is a viable oportunity, is a chance to reinvent yourself, to write your own story, the story which you dreamt of, the story who didn’t let you sleep at night..it sounds like the future, only better! Is the rewrite of a new “me” kept for months in the dark..
I want to dare my summer of freedom! I want to live every second of it, and never look back! #dareformore #mysummeroffreedom #justdoit
P.S: The perfect song for #thesummeroffreedom #mood is Pharrell- Freedom. Enjoy!
P.P.S: I’m starting to feel the taste of “no worries wind” 🙂
Libertate – este un cuvant pe care il ador. Fiind o mamica singura, zilele in care ma ocup doar de mine reprezinta chiar libertate. Fac cumparaturi, ma rasfat, citesc sau ma uit la un film pe care imi doream sa il vad, dar nu am avut timp. Asa ca premiul acesta imi surade tare mult, mai ales ca nu se stie destinatia, iar compania este deosebita.
Libertate sa fie! Plecam cu ochii inchisi oricare ar fi destinatia.
For me a summer of freedom means i take a brake from studying for law exams, and i can take some time for myself, take some time to enjoy a countryside road trip, or take some time to lay down under a big tree and watch the little spots of the sky when the wind blow the branches! I would realy like some of that!
Summer of Freedom…. Is looking at the sky and smelling the salty air of the sea …. Is dreaming with the eyes wide open and singing în the rain…. Îs traveling!!! Oh, how I love traveling!
Saying “YES” to everything is freedom (this is how I actually got a tattoo) ! And never regret a thing ! Cheers to the “Summer of Freedom”!
Summer of freedom is that summer when you just stop being someone your friends are confortable with, your loved one whants you to be, your kids demand that you are, and that little, but sometimes huge, real YOU, comes crawling to the surface and explodes in fireworks all over your world. Is that blessed moment when it doesn’t matter aymore if you are within the standards, and you just celebrate being f…ing different! The beach is your playground, the sea is the background, and every gesture, breath, laugh, suave move or delicate/undelicate sound, shadow, bruise, stretchmark, wrinkle, collide into sculpting the wonder that you are! And you know it! And you love it! And you embrace yourself, knowing that from that moment on nobody will ever take away your FREEDOM!!!
Summer of Freedom inseamna pentru mine simplul fapt de a sta undeva, pe un sezlong sau intr-un loc dragut, fara sa fie nevoie sa verific telefonul, sa stiu cand vine urmatorul tren, la ce ora trebuie sa il sun pe X-ulescu, cand trebuie sa dau refresh la Mail, cand sa merg nu stiu unde sau cum trebuie sa actionez in nu stiu ce situatie. Summer of Freedom inseamna efectiv o vacanta cu propria persoana, fara a fi perturbata, cu loc destul in cap incat sa pot sa observ lucrurile din jurul meu, sa admir, sa simt, sa vad. Summer of Freedom inseamna fericirea de a nu avea nimic in plan, de a nu avea un deadline, de a nu fi presata de orice altceva inafara de propriile dorinte. Te pup, Ana!
To have the courage to close your eyes in front of a map and to point with a pencil where your next destination will be.This is the freedom of summer.In fact,this is the freedom of life.
It is clear that freedom is not for free, you really need to work a lot in order to earn it and the same thing happened in my case. That’s the beauty of the freedom, no matter if you are working, resting, have a cup of coffee or just have the lunch in a different place from the rest of the world, it will bring you happiness, satisfaction and peace.
Freedom is that feeling that gives you the power, yes, you can do whatever you want! You can!
There is something magic about the summer also, makes you worry less, relax and have fun!
“Stay away from contests!” Ana I. told herself over and over again…but then, you do know how to make an offer one just cannot refuse! #TheGodmother
Let me tell you a couple things about myself:
I am a straight up workaholic…by choice! Why? Because I am madly and deeply in love with what I do and what I do makes others happy as well. That is freedom.
The second thing that defines me best: I am a wanderer. No stranger to jumping alone on planes just because I needed to roam my favourite streets of London or have a good coffee on Playa de la Barceloneta. Recharging your batteries whenever needed. That is also freedom.
It kind of sounds like Freedom of Summer and I are a match made in Heaven, doesn’t it?! 🙂
Well, this being said, you know where to find me if needed…home, that is…packing my bags! 😀
Have a marvellous day, dear Countess!
XOXO
A summer of freedom , one i will live someday, will be a sabbatical summer! I’ll pack only few things in my fancy backpack, sunglasses on, and go ahead wherever the intuition fulfills my desires. I won’t think and care about the money, the must do’s, the limits I was taught to accept, the uncertainties and other unnecessary thoughts. I will embrace not knowing what’s going to happen next, assuming the choices with every step i’ll take on an unwritten path. i’ll be like a sky man on earth…slowly advancing drunk with adrenaline. And when i’ll miss someone badly i’ll call them to propose to join me for a few days on my account. Oh, wouldn’t it be lovely? Sweet little towns, mountains and lakes, charming hidden beaches, best desserts on earth, awesome people and unforgettable stories to tell for the rest of my life. Roll sound, roll camera… and action!
Stand eu asa si uitandu-ma gales la vremea minunata de afara dintr-un scaun si mai minunat de birou…ma gandesc la un videoclip “all american dream” cum sed intr-un Chevrolet Impala din ’60 si imi flutura esarfa peste ochi. Si niste big a** sunglasses. Si o rochie cu buline. In dreapta stanca, in stanga mare. Vreau sa plec de la birou. As William Wallace once said: they will never take
our freedom! The End.
summer of freedom means traveling; means just going where your mind wandered all year; just packing and hitting the road
For me, Summer of Freedom means yet another chance of crossing awesome places from my travel wishlist. It means walking around and exploring new landscapes with my camera around my neck. It also means having someone to miss at home; this won’t ever limit your freedom, it would only make you more aware of the fact that you’re a young, lucky-as-hell person. Basically, Summer of Freedom means the possibility to be yourself while escaping the walls of the city, while watching the waves of the sea rolling on your feet and while the only moment you’re thinking about is the present. No need for apologies.
Ce înseamnă “Summer of Freedom” pentru mine?
Aolică, înseamnă evadare totală, absolută și irevocabilă din locurile în care respir și mișc “every single day”. Înseamnă cu chiu cu vai, renunțarea la telefon și alte dispozitive atoate-ajutătoare și împrietenirea cu o carte mișto, cu “real paper covers”, cum s-ar exprima în 2015 madam Ojog Brașoveanu. Și dacă tot am pomenit-o, s-o iau și pe dânsa cu mine, în variantă editată, ca să ne amuzăm împreună detectivește de bucureștenii interbelici.
Libertatea înseamnă tradiționalicește să faci ce-vrei-tu-cînd-vrei-tu-cum-vrei-tu. Corect până aici, da? Atunci fie, accept să ne trezim târziu și să ne plimbăm până la ore la fel de târzii, să ne bem cocktailurile într-un peisaj de poveste și să ne admirăm în toate oglinzile, vitrinile și bălțile pe care le întâlnim. Fără să ne pese că suntem ciufulite!
Ah, și dacă viața-i scurtă și vara și mai scurtă, propun să ne facem de cap în cel mai secret mod (ne)cunoscut vreodată!
Libertatea…hmmm…Pentru mine inseamna divort (nu glumesc, insa zambesc:) Mda, fostul sot isi dorea mult sa ii respect “libertatea”. Haha! Asa ca, atunci cand aud de libertate ma pufneste rasul. S-a golit (temorar) de semnificatie acest concept. Libera sau nu, insa, adooooooor vacantele, excursiile si orice ocazie de a-mi lua lumea in cap!!! 🙂
Summer of Freedom means to me to be announce that tommorow i need to travel around the world. I’m ready☺
Being an engineering student is synonim with “almost-no-free-time”, thus, the Summer represents a significant time to really feel the freedom at its finest.
Therefore, I really feel like expressing myself and do whatever my always-empty-schedule allows me to. For example, summer gives me more time for shopping, to be more fashionable, the ability to travel and enjoy new experiences, spend time with the ones I care about and do everything that pops into my mind without having regrets or worries for the time spent ’til then or for the following days.
Summer of freedom is finding your inner peace and equilibrium and keeping them!!!
Summer of Freedom?
Să faci tot ceea ce îți trece prin cap şi te cuprind sentimente puternice de pasiune şi fericire.
Spontaneitate. Asta e cheia pentru mine.
Oameni faini, locuri mirifice atmosfera şi experiențe care te dezvoltă pe plan personal şi spiritual.
Şi vorba aia, “să ai ce povesti nepoților”. 🙂
Summer of Freedom is a state of mind.
Senzatia de liberate a verii poate veni spre sfarsitul acesteia atunci cand plimbandu ma pe Coasta de Azur, vantul imi sufla esarfa viu colorata, iar sufletul pereche mie imi ofera ochelarii lui de soare……Awww doar imaginati va….
Summer of freedom?!interesant proiect.Asa si au castigat si negrii americani dreptul la vot☺.Desi e definita ca lipsa a constrangerilor…putini isi permit sa fie cu adevarat liberi.Poti fi un om liber in masura in care traiesti printre oameni liberi☺A spune ce gandesti si a te comporta dupa propria vointa creeaza opinii …contra.Prea putini apreciaza un om liber.Libertatea in moda e permisa☺In viata de zi cu zi…suntem semi liberi…ca sa zic asa.Cred ca fiecare e liber in masura in care vrea sa fie liber.
A summer of freedom is a summer with a Woodstock flavor, in any scenery. It’s the world that smiles and surrounds you with their good vibes, freedom for me is the power that comes from the inside to do what makes you happy, while making the other people happy.
All of these in a stunning outfit, of course. And by the way, I love your lipstick!
Maybe a couples years ago I would have said something related to escapism: being able to travel, to have coffee while others work, reading, running to the sea in the middle of the week, off to Bali unplanned.. But now I feel that a Summer of Freedom involves a sense of belonging. A sense of my spirit being renewed, of my friends, family& lover being close, creating a deeply affectionate caring net around me, of nesting relationships, of reclaiming humanity and constance. My freedom is related to being with people with whom I can be myself no matter how frail. A Summer of Freedom involves a feeling of home, simplifying a lot and the Danish word hygge- little details that make everything wonderful, cozy and familiar; it involves reclaiming time, to have time on my hands, time to waste, time for unplanned conversation.
This year, my Summer of Freedom meant taking risks, jumping into the unknown and enjoying the ride. It’s never too late to take life not so serious. You can be happily surprised.
Summer of Freedom?
Săptămâna de concediu în care îți iei omul drag și fugiți pe o insulă; o carte bună în mână și un cidru rece; mese copioase în fiecare seară fără să ai vreo remușcare; plimbat pe străzi necunoscute în căutare de meșteșugari ai locului de la care poți pleca cu ceva; Pe SCURT: trezit la ce oră ai chef, scăpat de grija oricărui deadline și re-la-xa-rea după care tânjim cu toții.
Summer of Freedom means not running away from summer rain, but feeling it after a hot day; a morning when you wake up in the smell of coffee and you realize it’s Saturday – the coffee will be served in bed; a random act of kindness, a surprise, a longing fulfilled; a good book at sunset, a glass of wine served while laying on the grass. Summer of Freedom is the Summer of Now.
Cateva zile din summer o freedom means to me: no soț, no copii , no bunici, no job , no papa, no mama :))) just me with myself. Hai te pup!!!
Summer of freedom is not just a time of the year, it’s a state of mind. Of dreaming and achieving exactly what you want, becoming what you’ve dreamed of becoming since last winter and knowing that one more Vivo burger is a decision you take out of free will. And so is that Zara blouse.
Freedom is acting on gut, knowing that you won’t do damages to others, whether it’s in love and commitment or just in a regular day of your single life.
Freedom is also not putting pants on Saturdays.
Freedom is being able to imagine stories and overthink scenarios and put them on the paper of your diary just how you want to.
Freedom is wearing colorful clothing on a grey, rainy day. With fuchsia lipstick on.
Summer of freedom is doing all of that, knowing that you’re doing the right thing(s). 🙂
Freedom…what a lovely word! But summer is even more beautiful in freedom…holiday, relaxation, tasty coffee, exotic dinner, beaches and endless sunshine! In one word: PARADISE.
Summer of Freedom, for me, is the passion you put into the things you do, so that the results bring you happiness, satisfaction and all the beautiful people that keep you going, motivating you to keep improving yourself and becoming a better version of yourself with every step. Freedom is being yourself and being of service to people around you by doing just that. 🙂
Fericire.Cu tot ce presupune acest sentiment!
Summer of freedom: Live the moment, create memories, never think twice ( crazy & spontaneous things are incredibly awesome).
I think that we have a life and we should enjoy every single moment of it. Sure, beside the moments when we have to act responsible. But in the summer, is the perfect time to do anything else than to be … ok…extremely responsible ( just a little bit is enough)
♥
Freedom is not waiting for the weekend, but live every day as a weekend.
Summer of freedom means, for me: travel a lot, having fun, discovering new places, reading..adventure!
to reinvent myself for autumn – more brave, more determined, more focused, and closer to the perfect version of myself… this is to me the summer of freedom
Summer of Freedom!!!! Yeeees! Adica sa incalc toate normele pe care mi le -am impus sau mi-au fost inculcate ca fiind corecte si imperioase. Asadar, libertatea incepe cu o baie de soare si plaja in Corfu din care plec cu parul sarat, adica texturat si stau asa toata ziua fara stresul de a intra repede sub dus si a-l…. formaliza cu sampon si balsam, continua cu o plimbare cu talpile goale prin iarba, pietre si strazi laturalnice din Roma si mici abateri de shopping prin magazinele vintage din Paris, somn de seara imbracata intr-o rochita de in alb intr-o casuta prin Provence, rochita care a doua zi devine tinuta la o cafea si un croissant cu cei mai apropiati prieteni. Summer of Freedom este un periplu plin locuri dragi, plecari impulsive de acasa, fara task-uri si office-uri, fara complimente ieftine prin birouri in care tensiunea pluteste ca la ea acasa. Inseamna carti lejere, romane siropoase si manuale de PR aruncate sub pat, inseamna ferestre deschise sa intre soarele prin toate cotloanele, inseamna praf gros pe mobila ca, deh, nu am mai dat demult pe acasa. Inseamna iubire in mijlocul zilei, inseamna ochi albastri si zulufi blonzi de pitic fericit ca te vede dimineata. Inseamna regasire de sine si regasire de cuplu. Inseamna limpezire a mintii si luarea de decizii pe termen lung. Inseamna sa astepti toamna si iarna fara parere de rau, fara regretul ca trece vara. Pentru ca in vara aceea de libertate nesperata tocmai ai cernut lucruri si ai decis ca poti merge mai departe fara teama. Ca tu alegi ce faci cu viata ta, ci nu altii sau alte lucruri decid pentru tine. Si astepti liber urmatoarea vara. Multumesc, Ana, pentru libertatea de exprimare aici, in spatiul tau.
“In the midst of winter, i found, there was within me, an invincible summer!” Aceasta “invincible summer”, inseamna libertatea suprema, prin devenire, descoperire de sine, acceptare si iubire a propriei fiinte,chiar si in cele mai dure momente; prin eliberarea furiilor, angoaselor, atasamentelor nocive, vinovatiilor si fricilor. So, for me, summer of freedom= the invincible summer within you!
I’ve never actually had a Summer of Freedom, you see… I’ve always been too busy doing what I had to do, for others or for myself, just because that’s the normal way it goes. So I can only imagine what such a summer could be, never thinking about my job, my boss, deadlines, schedules, meetings, stress and so on. Not caring about what to cook at home, for the boyfriend, and not giving a fuck about the cat’s litter box. My Summer of Freedom would have to be just that: FREEDOM! Driving in a full tank car to some God forsaken beach, sipping Aperols at 10 am, soaking in all the sun and drinking all the fresh air, before falling alseep on the warm beach, with a lullaby from the ocean. That’s one day of freedom! The next one is all about visiting my ass off, seeing all the attractions of a magical city, having coffee and breakfast in the most fabulous cafe, having a smoke in the corner of an old street, right next to museums and charming old houses, seeing the city from roof tops at night, laughing along beautiful people. And, at the end, when I’m almost too tired to keep my eyes opened, blogging about the magical experience, uploading tons of fabulous photos and realizing that I have finally tasted Freedom this Summer 🙂
Freedom is being yourself anytime, anywhere… during a fabulous summer as well! I would say a summer of freedom is being your fabulous self in the sun :)) it goes well with wedges and prosecco :)) enjoy!
I took a moment of freedom, while my kid is sleeping, and I’m joining you guys in the contest. I love her like crazy, but I want a moment of freedom of my own. Scorpie egoista ce sunt, cand o sa se faca mare, o sa-mi dea numai momente de libertate. Well, a city break will definetly be like a summer of freedom for me. Oh, dreams! Good luck, free people, drink all the coffee out there, laugh out loud, la propriu, sa va auda si Carul Mare! 🙂
Freedom is everywhere you can feel it. Freedom is being the best with you and give more to others. Freedom is where life cut your wings and you would fly anyway. Just being yourself and be thankful to your independece is a life of well done. Summer of freedom – join yourself!

Summer of freedom means no panic, no stress, no thinking ahead, just soaking in the moment
For me a Summer of Freedom is like living in an Estrella Damm commercial…to be surrounded by friends and nature, to be on an island, to laugh, to sing, to jump from cliffs into the sea, ride the bike, drink champagne at sunrise and swim in the sea at sunset, to taste the sun on your skin and smell the sea in your hair. Freedom is to do always something for the first time and to travel is to live.
“Summer of Freedom” =travel, beach, swim, love, good food, wine, laugh,love,shopping, positive thinking, make plans.
For me, personally, freedom is a state of mind. It is all about my mind and spirit. My life story can relate to this. I can say that I graduated a college that wasn’t me at all, it didn’t described me as who I am. I graduated from law school after 4 years of hard study, but meanwhile I found my passion in life: designing clothes. Now I’m working at my own workshop which I’m planning on opening next year to the public.
As is regards the “summer” part, this represents to me a permanent “feeling good” mood and a positive atitude. It’s not always about the sunny days and warm weather, it’s about how you see it. Because there are days in summer when it rains too…
Summer of freedom is not about travelling, taking risks and reading and whatever. It’s about not giving a flying f**k and just being yourself, whenever, wherever and with whomever you want. And I have no idea why, but those long hot summer nights make me feel this freedom the most.
Summer of freedom is walking in hot sand, wind blowing in your hair and sun kissing the skin.
Summer of Freedom it’s those moments when time stands still for a while, where a book and good company are everything you need to be happy. A Summer of Freedom moment puts everything into perspective and lets us plan the next step with more courage and hope.
My Summer of freedom is having peace of mind&soul. Being hugged by your friends hearts. Being rich in family and drunk with a dust of love and sunny days.
Summer of Freedom means to me having fun, doing whatever I wished in a long time, traveling and also wearing my best clothes and being fabulos.
Summer of freedom means being is peace with yourself and doing all kind of first time things done: climbing the mountains, swimming with dolphins, shopping, party, clubbing, market research for a new business or new opportunities and a lot o pictures. 😀
Summer of freedom for me meanss to surrender my body and soul completely ,to belong only to myself ,that is a sense of becoming more and more aware that the whole universe conspires to love me !!! Because I m alone but I love my lonliness… Because I m young and I adore it … Because I m a dreamer and I dream my own life . Thank you Ana
When i say summer of freedom i think of a hot , sensual love story. The heart is free to love and share all the goodies she kept deep within. It’ s a new start for a sleepy head. A refreshing wave of passion that makes a summer to remember. Be the love you want to see in the world! Kisses Ana!
In my opinion, summer of freedom means holiday, always on move, knowledge, to feel like home away from home wherever you travel!
Summer of freedom: grab some clothes, close cellphone,eat lots of icecream and everything you want, behave as you wish, be yourself!
For me Summer of Freedom is the best time when I recharge my body and soul!
Sometimes what you really need most is just some time on the beach, when nothing is scheduled, where no one can reach you, with all of you electronic devices unplugged or shut off.
Summer of Freedom- for me it means returning to the childhood days when I spent entire weeks just reading and not even getting out of the house and entire weeks when you never found me home because I was with my friends in some kind childish of adventure.
A summer of freedom has never happened. It should be a peaceful time, when everybody I care for is safe, happy and I can enjoy , for a little while, the beauty of the world.There is the healing light if sunrise and flowers and silence and, maybe, the sea. And smiling people and soft music.
Summer of freedom means you and your luggage fully prepared to escape the crowded city, even for a day or two. Nothing will make you feel better than a sweet coffee near the sea… just you and your coffee and full harmony.
Taking decisions for me is freedom, being truly in charge is liberating in a way 🙂
Summer of freedom is staying on a surf plate and paddling on the ease water. Never did, but oh…the dream of it.
Dear Ana my summer freedom means the freedom of traveling the best destinations with a fashionista to share the freedom of buying fashion clothes and dress up exactly how wr feel in those days ,have fun & change experiences between us !so bring the action kisss
A Summer of Freedom is never feeling sorry about the way you want to live your life, and gaining strength to pursue your dreams in the freezing winter to come. My Summer of Freedom would end magically in a trip with you!
Summer of Freedom is for me the ability to stay calm inside in all the situation, let nothing perturb you inside.
Summer of freedom = sky above me, skin kisses by sun.
Summer of freedem = smell of a flower, touch of the rain, kiss by the beloved one…
Freedom is all we should look up to find, do many and explain to none what you do!
Libertatea nu are cum sa fie ceva fizic,palpabil..clar.Libertatea e sa fii impacat cu tine,sa ai incredere ca faci ce trebuie,li ertatea e in NOI!:)
Summer of freedom…mmm…close your eyes and you will feel it in a golden sandy beach with turqoise water in old Greece, in a noisy, colourfull Barcelona, in the green, perfectly aligned vineyards of Tuscany, in the lush, peacefull hills of Charlotte Bronte’s England, in the violet, mindblowing smell of lavander in Provence, in Madame Bovary’s glamorous and aristocratic Normandy…set your mind free and see where it takes you
Freedom is that feeling when I`m heading to nowhere. No plans, no lists, no worries. Just me and my backpack, lost in a sweet wanderlust.
For me freedom is being yourself.
I guess, summer of freedom is being myself in every situation, in every location. Being able to travel were I want, when I want! In other words, be impulsive, Shock yourself, live for and love yourself!
Pentru mine libertatea porneste de acolo de unde nu mai sunt drumuri asfaltate, continua pe poteci tot mai inguste pana in varf de munte. Rad cand ma gandesc la o vacanta cu Ana. O vad pe Ana frumoasa, feminina, cu rochita si tocuri alergand din magazin in magazin, incarcata cu pungi pline de cumparaturi si eu spunandu-i “Bine Ana, mai intram in asta si pe urma gata. Mergem sa vedem poate au si astia ceva mai interesant in orasul asta. Hai ca ai luat destule, iti ajung pentru cativa ani! La ce iti trebuie atatea? Nu ai luat deja unul?” Sunt curioasa daca as incalta eu pantofi cu toc sau Ana bocanci!
Summer of freedom: laziness in a green grass, having closely a great book, my lovely husband and some delicious french food products next to us. No thoughts, no daily pressure, just us in the nature
I have to wait eight months to feel the sun, the heat, the sand, the salted water, hollidays, outside drinks , green nature and light clothes. Summer is my freedom since i was a little girl at my grandparents farm and today is every trip i have the occasion to go. Hope it will be a great city break for you! 🙂
Wow! This is cool! My summer of freedom was this year wondering around big waves with the wind blowing into the sails and your mind being able to overcome limits and dive into your own presence.
For me , in this moment ,freedom is the effect of the good news ….I feel soooo free to do things in this moment!
Summer of Freedom means do things with passion and enjoy it!
When I read the concept, my mind started to play images from a diverse town, full of life, without too many inhibitions, without phones, on an urban jungle style with reggae influences, with a suitcase full of easy or wrap dresses, a denim coverall and a new pair of Purple New Balance shoes. All of this and the Devil! 😉
Hi Ana,
For me FREEDOM is LOVE because only Unconditional Love will set us free. Love others as you love yourself, this is Freedom.
God bless you and your work with Love.
… Phhh, for me means to eat watermelon with cheese until i drop dead, while I’m watching Hank Moody! Si sa duc sacoul pe care l.am cumparat de la second hand.ul de lângă bloc la croitorie sa.i tai mânecile si sa.l transform intr.o vesta… Poate ii schimb si nasturii! Preparing for autumn of freedom!
My Summer Freedom is to walk barefoot and not to be afraid to love, anyone or anything! Love is freedom!
A summer of freedom means to me that I get to do things I feel in a certain moment without restraints. If I feel like going to an exotic place without my boss knowing or noticing I’m gone, just do it. No consequences. Just freedom.
As a matter of fact, I do think all of us should have that “Summer of freedom” feeling from time to time. Just reject the chores and feel grateful for what we feel. Just saying.
A Summer of Freedom for me is actually going on a trip where i will most likely photograph everything i see (i’m a photo maniac), explore new places, relax and have fun as much as i can.No stress and no worries! Just having fun and interract with people! And if a countess comes along, it’s even better!
Feel the breeze in your hair and smell the intense parfume of your lavender parfume. Enjoy a pure turquish coffee and a fresh orange juice. Look around…touch his hand…and feel the security, the tenderness in his eyes. He loves you…and you love him back. My summer of freedom is my boo and I want to share every season of freedom with him!
Summer of freedom…sounds so hippy 🙂
For me that’s basically reading a good book or more while laying on the beach, followed by some hiking or finding new places and meeting new and interesting people, attending music festivals and dancing all night long. All of this would be done without worrying about my work email or my mobile phone. You should only bring your iPod & camera for the Summer of Freedom and you’re all set!
A summer of freedom means calling your friends in the middle of the night, getting into a car and driving to the seaside + swimming in the sea under the stars or during a heavy Rain
Summer of Freedom sounds to me like going to Cape Verde for surfing, chilling on the beaches and drinking cocktails!
For me, Summer of freedom is not only a season of the year,but a lifetime… The summer and freedom in our lives,basically, must be felt no matter what… I am not satisfied to feel free only sometimes or to enjoy summer only 3 months a year, freedom is a state of mind for me and of course, I feel the sun in my soul with my eyes wide open or with them deeply closed… Words can’t explain this feeling, it needs to be felt…it’s like dancing to the sound of our hearts…
In my opinion, “Freedom is nothing but the chance to be better”(Albert Camus).
Freedom to learn, freedom to experience new things, freedom to be wrong and comprehend how to do better, freedom to love and last but not least freedom to travel and see the world. Of course, all of this are connected.
We have the freedom to learn in order to have the freedom to choose the job we love, and work to have the freedom to taste the good things of life, to travel.
And traveling gives us the freedom to see the world as it is, to explore and compare.
For me, Summer of Freedom is tranquility and freedom combined. It’s like that salty taste you get once you step out of the sea and the wind blows your hair.
As I haven’t planned any vacation this summer, I would deeply cherish the chance to have my Summer of Freedom in your company, as I believe it will give me the freedom to
dream about sunny beaches and palms all year long. 🙂
Whenever you feel like you are happy and it’s getting late, and it’s still warm, so you need nothing but your lover’s kiss on the forehead and a great glass of rose wine in your hand.
Whenever you feel peaceful and at east your yourself and you feel like you have everything you ever wanted in your life.
That’s when you feel you are having your summer of freedom, the one that we should have all the time, mental freedom.
Summer of freedom
Oh, beloved summer – how much I’ve waited for you, dear,
Glad to tell everybody it’s again that time of the year
When every day has that magic sparkle in it
A vacation, a surprise or – let’s be honest – a cocktail sip
Solve your problems and put them in place
Because this summer gives you a second chance
More is the new less again
And as a bonus- we will also get some tan!
More express
And less repress
It’s the perfect solution for stress.
Enjoy everything… the sun, the wind, the breeze
Even the flower that makes you sneeze.
A hug, a kiss from someone loved may also cheer you up
Or a love “purr purr” from your cat that cares nothing about.
Freedom, gratitude and love go hand in hand
And without them you’re hopeless on this land.
Open you mind and find the best in every situation
And instantly you’ll feel a new sensation
Your heart will be filled with joy
Just like a child that gets a new toy
Always remember it’s all about mentality
And that your attitude creates the reality
And when you make mistakes, don’t feel sorry
Because the most important is to be the hero of your own story.
The Summer of freedom is endless. With calm days and crazy nights, filled with lots of love, smiles and unforgettable moments..
Summer of Freedom is fun, friends, sea, love and no wories. That’s the feeling I had before my baby boy came :)). But I’m still happy <3
Oh, dear Summer of Freedom!
Thank you for allowing me to work from lovely terraces, to buy fresh flowers from any corner of the city, to ride my bike to new places and dress light. Cat eyes and a red lipstick, that’s all i need when i have you! That, and beloved city breaks 😀
Summer of freedom

This is how my summer of freedom turned into a poem 🙂
Doing what I like is FREEDOM, liking what I do is my SUMMER of FREEDOM
Summer of freedom is the place were I can be myself and have enough time to do all the nothing I want.
Summer of Freedom: A Croatian coast village, an early flight to Belgium, a late night barbecue party, a new friend, am offer you can’t resist, a spontaneous hitchhiking trip to Berlin, a secret garden in which you get locked in at midnight, launching so hard you start crying, Kerouac, Two Gallants-Steady Rollin’, a mistaken hold of hands, a stolen kiss, the smell of the lavender garden.
Summer of Freedom….It’s a very interesting challenge you launched :). For me, it means no boundaries, no limits, no plans, just living every second of my life like it’s the last one. Live life to the fullest!
Freedom means to be happy with all your heart! Libertatea înseamnă sa fii fericit cu tot sufletul si cu toată ființa!
Beyond what we can see, beyond what we can hear, beyond what we are told, there is freedom!
Summer of Freedom to me is this summer. And all the summers ahead. Because this summer I finally allowed myself to be who I am. Actually, I allowed myself to discover who I am. And I will keep on doing that from now on. Nice to meet me. Life has just started. At 28. Magic. I’d love to meet you, too, in this wonderful adventure.
Summer of freedom means having no worry. Or feeling like no worry is upon my shoulders.
This summer like no other I went home for a couple of days, came back to Bucharest, went to the seaside in Mamaia with 4 friends & hubby, back to Bucharest and the next weekend in Neptun with mum &my little sister. It was a blast cause I.m the type of person that loves to travel but also enjoys spending time with myself home.
Now…this weekend I m gonna stay in Bucharest home alone, so after a bit of rush calm days shall come.
Love,
Ioana
Summer of freedom = (uncountable expression with countless meanings); to me – turning daydreaming into reality.
T.G.
A summer of freedom would mean seeing something beautiful and new. Learning something new. It would be wearing my best clothes with the burble of a new language in my ears, a different sun on my face. It would be disconnecting from all that I know and soaking up something totally new, feeding my spirit and mind, healing my soul. A summer of freedom would be wonderful, an opportunity to heal and just be me without any interference. A summer of freedom sounds like a dream come true.. .
https://ldistyle.wordpress.com/ , va rog, aruncati o privire 🙂
Bună, Ana! Ce mai faci? 🙂
Ne-ai întrebat ce înseamnă “Vara Libertăţii” ( “Summer of Freedom” ) pentru noi. Voi fi sinceră: pentru mine, Vara Libertăţii este un PLEONASM. Dar unul foarte plăcut, dacă pot să zic aşa. Unul drăgălaş. De ce? Pentru că, pentru mine, vară = libertate, iar cea mai mare libertate mi se oferă vara, deci e cu viceversa treaba.
Vara este acea perioadă a anului când nu mi se mai impune nimic de către nimeni, când mă accept aşa cum sunt, cu bune şi cu rele, şi când încerc să-mi dezvolt pasiunile, să-mi definesc firea şi toate cele. Adică, vara este acea perioadă a anului când sunt absolut LI-BE-RĂ! ( pentru că am vacanţă, nu de alta :)) )
Dacă ar fi să aleg titlul de Cea mai Specială Vară a Libertăţii, cu siguranţă pentru mine ar fi această vară, când s-a întâmplat asta: https://www.facebook.com/CoccolinoRomania/photos/t.100004432833650/865356700213463/?type=3&theater – un eveniment declanşator pentru o altfel de libertate, care mi-a umplut vara şi m-a ajutat să-mi creez un nou stil de viaţă. 😀
M-am tot gândit care ar fi Vara Libertăţii tale, deşi tu ne-ai întrebat pe noi. Cred că ar fi vara anului 2010, când ţi-ai lansat colecţia de rochii, nu? Mi se pare că atunci ai atins cotele unei libertăţi ( văratice ), pe care nu le mai atinseseşi până la momentul acela. De atunci ai fost liberă să fii tu exact, exact, exact aşa cum eşti. Oricum, îmi dau doar cu părerea, nu bag mâna-n foc că-i aşa.
Una peste alta, Vara Libertăţii/Summer of Freedom este, pentru mine, singurul pleonasm pe care l-aş accepta, singurul pleonasm pe care îl iubesc la nebunie ( şi îţi mulţumesc că m-ai făcut să-mi dau seama de toate astea ). De fapt, cine nu ar iubi conceptele Vară şi Libertate? Mai ales dacă înseamnă şi acelaşi lucru… :))
”Summer of Freedom” means being able to enjoy life, no matter what. Aannnd…wait…wait, erm (loading)…exciting, self-confidence, elegance, love, the power to talk, individualism, optimism, to cultivate kindness, self-control, knowledge, free agency, to learn from mistakes, responsibility, open-mindedness, success, exploration, happiness, day-dreaming, vigour, decorum, fearless. For me, these words make up the puzzle of a powerful thing ~ Freedom. Pam! Pam!
Hugs & Kisses,
Raluca.
It’s funny and interesting because I tagged my summer-related posts from Facebook #Summeroffreedom many days (weeks actually) before I read about this contest on your blog.
It’s like this that I tried to build my summer-and struggling now with my entire life. Freedom it’s synonym for me with Cinderalla’s advice from the movie with the same name (I saw the movie in the plane that took me to this summer’s destination). Haha, I know, it’s a children’s movie, but sometimes, when I try to relax and let it go I do use simple genuine things-like fairy tales. So, the advice goes like this: “have courage and be kind” . That’s freedom for me: not the absence of fear,but the presence of courage. And not the absence of anger or frustration or sadness (nor the refuse of manifesting those when needed) but the effort of not letting them bitter all of you and the effort of beeing kind as much as possible.
I was two weeks in Mexico this summer, i wrote about this here: and there I just tried to follow this simple definition – have courage and be kind. Mexico was for me a courage proof from the beginning since a lot of people told me to be aware-starting with doctors and ending with the Internet which presents it dangerous. Then it was a place where I tried to conquer fears since I started a blog there, I learned horse-riding, I even made photos riding a horse while wearing a dress (a sort of traditional riding costume), I ate insects and other weird things and had many other experiences. And yes, it was also a proof of kindness since not all the experiences were positive, but I tried to act nice and cool and remember every single minute how grateful I really was to be there. #summeroffreedom #kissesandhugs #andsmiles
Haha, and freedom might be also admitting when you are head in the clouds and make mistakes; in the previous comment i had a sentence starting with “I was two weeks in Mexico, i wrote about this here” and the i intended to put this links:
http://kristia.ro/pentru-mine-mexicul-are-cu-ce-2/
and
http://kristia.ro/pentru-mine-mexicul-are-cu-ce%E2%80%8E-1/
But of course, grr, I did not! Sorry for that! Kiss&hugs reloaded!
running through water, at the seaside, like back in the childhood :)))
A summer of freedom for me is a a summer in New York with my husband..or at least a couple of weeks ..going to our favourite places and completely disconnect. And after that, maybe gain our freedom with some more travelling 🙂
”SUMMER OF FREEDOM” este ”JOIE DE VIVRE”.
Imi imaginez un city break cu tine,Ana, la Paris in metropola care nu dorme niciodata, mai ales in perioada acesta cand copacii se coloreaza ,iar noi avem niste palarii cu boruri largi si servim sampanie la mic dejun(asa fac de fiecare data de ziua mea,care e curand ,pe 1 septembrie).
Si dupa aceasta experienta in care tu ai sa ma inveti secrete din arta stilului si a make up ului o sa inceapa AUTUM OF FREEDOM,in Parisul care e ”soucre de vie ”.
In final dupa acesta visare constienta,SUMMER OF FREEDOM este o stare de vitalitate,entuziasm ,energie ,bucurie de viata,de oameni,de locuri .E emotie,e pasiune ,e traire,e reconectare intre minte,trup si spirit.
Hi, Ana!
Summer of Freedom for me, means …let’s see : not getting up early in the morning, sun, pool, coktails, friends, travelling, eating lots of crap … happiness 🙂 it also means getting to do what you want to do, create memories and making your own choices god or bad…
Kisses! 🙂
I’ve never experienced a bona fide ‘summer of freedom’ until this year! Maybe it’s because I had a gruelling yet rewarding first year in Med School or the fact that I turned 20 this month, or both..Either way, I was determined to make this summer count! For me, this summer of freedom meant: taking long walks in Iasi, the city where my heart belongs, go to escape rooms, have a Leonardo Dicaprio movie marathon, go more to the countryside, shop a lot thanks to the great summer sales (I’ve always wanted an YSL lipstick, a pair of Nike Airmax and I made it happen) , driving around the city with my best friend at midnight with Kanye rapping his heart out in the background, enjoying guilty pleasures like a chocolate mousse, cooking all sorts of fancy dishes for my little sister, playing tennis, waking up at impossible hours to watch tennis (especially Simona Halep), having a lot of city breaks around our beautiful country with my friends, enjoying the sun in Rhodes, dancing in the golden sands of Lindos, swimming in the crystal clear water of the Mediterranean Sea, watching the sunrise, reading astonishing literature…This summer has been the absolute definition of freedom and I feel blessed!
Whoever is the lucky winner of this city break will have the most perfect ending to this beautiful summer, especially because they would have Ana as their fashionable partner in crime! I applaud the marvellous initiative the Best Value team had!
Summer of freedom is the key to happinness, just like the key to freedom is courage!
Freedom is knowing that you alone are responsible for everything you do. Being free, no matter what rules surround you.
But in the same time being free means living in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
Summer of freedom, to me, means totally disconnecting from your day to day life. When you take a step back from your job, your worries and you reward yourself a well-deserved break.
It’s when you travel, and cut loose and submerge yourself in the culture that you are visiting. When you imagine yourself like one of the locals, image yourself living there, with not a care in the world, just breathing in the spectacular sceneries and enjoying meeting the local people.
It’s when you relax and think about your life, about all the great moments that passed and all the moments that will come, and just be hopeful for the future and grateful for all you have.
In my eyes summer of freedom is feeling the sea breeze in my hair and the sun caressing my skin, seeing unforgettable shades of blue that keeps me warm in winter and having fun while i try to spot fishes in the sea. For me summer of freedom is enjoying small things that can be done only 3 months/year. These things make me feel so grateful, happy and lucky for being able to see so much awesomeness.
Summer of freedom means leaving the city without any regret, sunbathing, reading while sipping Prosecco. Summer of fredoom it`s a state of mind, hwere you can leave all your worries home, experiences new things, meet new people and cherish every last moment you have of this summer.
Kisses and hugs. I`m waiting for your announcement 😀
Summer of freedom means love into my heart, sand into my hair, sea on to my lips and smile all over the face from sunrise to sunset.
I can feel summer of freedom when leaving the beach in the sunset with sand in my wet hair while a silk dress carresing my body.
Summer freedom in Berlin means, long summer nights with a beer near the water, being barefoot and enjoying this very special time of the year with good friends. Everything and everyone seems so much more unburdened during summer…that’s true summer freedom! In general for me personally freedom means, my own choices,especially to surround myself with people who are good for me, who believe in me and have a positive attitude torwards the up’s and downs of life. Together we can make the best possible for us and others who are maybe struggeling with much bigger problems of life. Freedom is also the feeling to be able to be thankful for the moment and the good little and big things happening every day. I just discovered your blog some weeks ago, I live in Germany, but my Mum is Romanian and somehow lost a bit the connection to my roots. By following your blog I made kind of a a first step, back to the roots…and I really enjoy it. And I know, right now it’s about wining this trip…I dont even know if it’s possible for me living in Berlin, but I wanted to tell you: You are a true inspiration for me: confident, smart, feminine, stylish and funny! Keep rocking! Greetings from a big fan. <3
Summer of freedom means to me no plan, try to live in the moment and enjoy it.
Summer of Freedom means sun+desert& lots and lots of joy…oh..and love and expresso and apple cider 🙂 and making new adventures and meeting new freaks…oups! interesting people!
Summer of Freedom means for sure traveling around the world! Pack a few things, fill in the gas tank and drive, and drive, and stop at night on the side of a lake to breath the silence! Then drive some more and stop to eat from locals, something made from an receipe enherited for generations! The back in the car, drive some more to see that far away castle that you heard about as a child and until now you only imagined it! My summer of freedom would be like this! Freedom to move, freedom to travel, freedom to see, freedom to be! xoxo
Summer of freedom : the power to act, speak and think as I want !!!
Ce este libertatea!? What is freedom for me? Este ceva ce pretuim mai mult cand ne lipseste, si o iubim nespus cand o avem din nou. Libertatea este o aripa in suflet pe care o ajutăm sa zboare in aer sau in gand. Daca vrem sa zboare la Paris, nu e nevoie decat sa suflam in ea si zboară. Libertatea e in fiecare dintre noi. Eu o simt acolo si de cate ori imi doresc zbor cu ea cu gândul sau cu avionul. E a mea si o pretuiesc.
Summer, summer, summer. They always bring something out in me. This summer was different from the others, it was my summer of freedom, my book of hope, it made me want to believe. A lot of time for myself, a lot of decisions, some that hurt, but I decided I will not be afraid to give myself everything I ever wanted and I will do everything that it takes for it. I learned how to love all of me and I found myself smiling at the end of every day. That was my summer of freedom but freedom comes in all shapes and sizes. I decided that until the next summer of freedom, I’ll have my autumn, winter and spring of freedom. But meanwhile…it’s still summer…
For me, summer of freedom means being away from the daily job routine, away from my phone, swinging in a hammock, somewhere on a white sand island, surrounded by the bluest water your eyes have ever seen. And on a great mood, sponsored by hourly margaritas 🙂
To me, a summer of freedom can mean several things , but first of all, it means power, independence, the possibility to do whatever I want to do, living my life to the full. It could also mean traveling,breaking free, escaping from the hustle and bustle of the city, exploring new places, discovering people, making new friends, crossing borders, exceeding my limits and aiming higher and higher, living out my life as a thrilling and unpredictable adventure. Sometimes it might be just a carefree summer in which I feel free to express myself, being happy and grateful, finding joy and beauty in simple things…. Or it could simply stand for the majestic feeling of doing nothing but enjoying the supreme moment of procrastination. 🙂
Pentru mine The summer of freedom a fost the moment when I met you. As vrea sa simt acel sentiment din nou vara aceasta. Xoxo
Summer of Freedom is about being happy.
It’s about travelling light.
Summer of Freedom is about enjoying the sun rays, the sea breeze or the view from the top of a mountain.
It’s about having breakfast alone on a Sunday morning in the Old Center when half of the city is still asleep.
Summer of Freedom is about doing what I want career wise.
Summer of Freedom is about savoring each little moment that comes my way.
It’s about being grateful for what I have.
It’s about being thankful for the friends that I have.
It’s about love.
Summer of Freedom? Leaving in 2 days for a city break with the Dark Countess. And can we please take Fitzgerald with us?
summer of freedom equals going to the airport, asking which is the next destination with available seats and boarding
Summer of Freedom inseamna un concediu prelungit, de minim 3 saptamani, far mail si telefon, cu ruscsacul in spate si calatorind cu trenul dintr-un oras in altul
summer of freedom is never missing any music festival on the continent 😉
mare, petreceri pana-n zori, foc de tabara, prieteni, o carte buna citita pe plaja, cocktails la ora 11am, fructe de mare, rochii diafane, nisip cald…..and i could go on and on 🙂
Summer of Freedom is all about travelling, experiencing new cultures, new food, new fashion
cred ca summer of freedom a fost vara asta pentru mine, am vazut spania si franta cu o masina inchiriata, alaturi de cele mai bune prietene. a fost o luna superba pe care mi-o voi aminti mereu cu placere
Summer of freedom is the way you wake up happy every morning, having coffee on the rooftop of you building, planning new weekend escapes and enjoying every minute
Discovering new places in town when everybody is at the seaside and you can enjoy them in peace :))))
summer of freedom e atunci and fiecare zi incepe cu un brunch, chiar si ziua de munca, continuia cu proseccos la pranz si se termina cu cine minunate alaturi de oameni dragi 🙂 talk about dreaming :))
cred ca summer of freedom inseamna in primul rand sa te simti bine in pielea ta, sa te bucuri de fiecare zi cu soare, sa gasesti oaze de liniste in orasul agitat si sa visezi mereu
city break with you…this should be an interesting experience 🙂
while dreaming about a summer of freedom i dream about hot days on the seashore. Looking at the sparkling water, sitting on the sand, hearing the waves . Standing there, trying to capture all these simple yet so superb things in mind forever. This is a summer of freedom for me. No schedule, no phone, no internet. Just the sea,a lonely beach, (maybe) a swimsuit and a couple of good books. If this is not freedom, I don’t know what is
It is not only being free, but feeling free as well..
I started to fell free when I discover who I am. Also love gives me total freedom to be myself.
So..if you have all this every day can be a summer of freedom! 🙂
Intr-o zi lui Madmoazel Sum i s-au aprins calcaiele dupa contele Mer. Si inversamente.
Desi dansa era fata de la tara, tunsoarea ei putin patrata si ochii ei de caprioara il facura pe contele Mer sa o ia de sotie.
Degeaba Mama Contesa gandea ca Sum nu este fata cu sange albastru, caci Mer nimic nu voia s-auda.
Intr-o zi, Mama Contesa se hotari sa ii expozeze fiului sau motivul ce tare ii ardea inima:
– Mer, dragule, intelegi tu… Dansa nu poate fi sotia Dumneavoastra, sunteti conte! Nu putem atribui unei fete de taran numele “Balacescu”!
– Da Draga Mama, sunt conte insa indiferent de ceea ce-mi vei spune, eu sunt deopotriva puternic indragostit de Sum! Vezi tu, Sum seamana atat de mult cu…cu Ana Morodan!
– Oh, te rog Mon Cher, iti interzic sa compari o adevarata contesa a secolului nostru cu Sum!
Nimic nu-l intoarse insa pe Mer din drum. Acesta se casatori cu Sum care la scurta vreme aduse pe lume un fiu frumos ca…ca Tudoran!
Spune vorba din batrani ca pruncul era agale de frumos si ca buclele barbii sale crete ca zimtii fierastraului, straluceau ca soarele verii!
Cand pruncul iesi din pantecele mamei sale, tatal sau Mer, il lua in brate, se uita lung la sotia sa si ii spuse timid:
– Draga mea, barba lui este nespus de stralucutoare! Si ce ochi, ce ochi sublimi (ca ai Anei Morodan, se gandii el in ganduri)…Stii, cred c-am putea s-l numim SumMer!
– Oh, sunt magulita Mer, ideea ta strasnic m-a inlacrimat…Ce fericit prenume ai putut sa afli!
– Stii Sum, nu ti-am spus pana acum insa mama, mama nu va fi de acord sa-l numim “Balacescu”…
– Mer, dragul meu, nu este grav, important este ca noi ne vom putem trai liber iubirea; azi si in fiecare zi a vietii noastre ce va urma…
– Of, Sum, mare adevar graiesti! Libertatea iubirii noastre este cea mai importanta…Pentru ca intregul regat sa stie ca ne-am unit destinele o sa-l numesc, o sa-l numesc… Contele Libertatii!
Si-uite asa ajunsera sa-si numeasca fiul SumMer Of Freedom, pentru ca toate natiile si toate timpurile ce urmau sa vina, sa stie ca indiferent de obstacole si pagube, libertatea iubirii este si va ramane, peste timpuri, pilierul cerului si al pamantului, al Soarelui si al Stelelor, al tuturor minunatiilor ce ne inconjoara.
Dear Ana,
Freedom means many things to many people. For me, summer of freedom means seeing every sunrise at 5:30 in those summer mornings, and, that no matter what I choose to do, my human heart remains free. Just like these awesome ladies : https://goo.gl/T47iGf
You can feel how their hearts are free.
Going back from Bucarest to Paris, like I do at the end of each summer…
I’d say I’m not a shopping addict but, but, but…BUT!
This first shopping station in…Otopeni kills me with an endless childish happiness each time I pass by!
Let’s see…
One lovely perfume for my mother-in-law, (forgot to tell she is in Romania, meaning that I buy when leaving for when I’ll be back! But well, who would let a 19€ promotion go by?!).
+ an airplane toy full of candies for my 3 years old (sure, I do not like him heaving candies but…well, it’s the end of the holidays and each thing that makes me still dream about summer deserves every little €. Plus, that makes me feel like a Cool Mummy once in a while!)
Let’s also add some M&Ms for hubby (who does not eat sugar; guess who’ll eat them in the plane? Miummy!!!)
And…where are these Mozart chocolate balls which always make me dream about Vienna? … There on the left! Got them!
Immm, let’s also take a battle of “I don’t even know what it’s inside” – but well, as long as I love the form of the bottle it cannot be bad! The great argument of “it’s been brought from home” will surely find some adepts!
A calendar with beautiful Romanian landscapes to remind me of my home’s air of freedom and happiness.
And let’s also grab a blue and white bag which is…to be worn at the seaside! Yeaah! ( even if the summer time is slowly ending I still have the right to dream! La la laaaaaa! This is what women were created for, isn’t it?)
Dling-Dling, here are the € getting out and my happiness getting in!
This last breathe of my home’s air melt with the freedom of buying whatever I don’t need from Best Value is the last step of my (every) summer of freedom!
I don’t know who called this last shopping station Best Value, but he/she surely felt exactly the way I do!
Happiness, come here, happiness!!!!
vara asta viata mea s a schimbat radical si in foarte bine. summer of freedom inseamna sa ai curaj sa spui stop si da la provocari
summer of freedom is about doing what you love and enjoying every moment
am inteles abia la 34 de ani ce inseamna summer of freedom: fugi la mare in toiul noptii ca sa prinzi rasaritul pe plaja, sa iei cina in alt oras, sa vezi locuri frumoase si sa fii deschisa sa cunosti oameni noi si interesanti
I think summer of freedom is about finding love and feeling loved and for that feeling to last more than one summer 😉
for me, summer of freedom means taking the trip of your life, even it’s only for two days 😉
Summer of Freedom inseamna sa-ti amintesti ca tu esti cea mai importanta si sa iubesti asa cum esti
summer of freedom is about new experiences and there’s no better season like summer to try them. you have to be open minded and brave enough for them, and by fall you might discover that you are someone new
for me summer of freedom mean peace and quite, with a little party sparkle, some adrenaline topping and lots of love <3
Summer of freedom means travelling and loving.
Summer OF Freedom is about going on a trip and not knowing where. I think this is the most amazing thing that can happen to you
Summer of Freedom is every day of my life. Enjoying and loving every moment of my life.
A Summer of Freedom doesn’t mean just that I can do whatever I want, whenever I want whit who I want. It’a about getting free with myself, from myself. It’s about exploring my mental and physical boundaries and after all, about finding the inner peace that fuels my freedom. It’s kinda about me…And I kinda don’t regret that. 😀
Dear Ana,
Freedom means many things to many people. For me, summer of freedom means seeing every sunrise at 5:30 in those summer mornings and, that no matter what I choose to do, my human heart remains free. Just like these awesome ladies: https://goo.gl/T47iGf
You can feel how their hearts are free.
You hike for 15 miles just to reach the little piece of heaven called sea. Take you hiking shoes off and unwind. Leave the shoes & worries on the shore. Leave your city, your memories and everything you have. Step slowly on the sharp rocks & make your way onto the crystal clear water. Run towards it as fast as you can and feel every muscle thanking you. You are now in complete harmony with yourself. You don’t even think about the hike you have to take back to your comfortable bed, or that paper you have to submit at the end of the month. You put on your shoes and keep walking. You wander. Taking an infinite amount of pictures, stoping only to take sketches. You collect shells and carefully put them in your pocket, as you know you will need to remember these moments for life. You find this narrow crab shell and you can see how the waves have eaten into it. You feel just like that. You are the crab that left the shell behind to discover its true nature. That is when you finally embrace the freedom of summer.
Summer of Freedom means being in a park with my friends at midnight playing football and climbing trees (I know it sounds 15 year old-ish but I swear I’m 22), so it means being childish at times.
Summer of Freedom means driving around the city and deciding with your best friend that you’re in the mood to drink a beer on the beach; and do just that. So it means being spontaneous când ţi se năzare.
Summer of Freedom means spending time with your family and playing board games while drinking wine and making jokes out of everything; so it means loving your loved ones.
Summer of Freedom means studying because you are a law student and Law School doesn’t care about your summer of freedom. So it basically means “make a future for yourself so that you can have more summers of freedom”.
Summer of Freedom means drinking your coffee in the morning because you actually enjoy it, not because something needs to keep you on your toes so that you can work all day long. Even though I enjoy the latter as well. 😀
Summer of Freedom means traveling. Seeing new places and old places that you love, breathing in the air of freedom.
I’m walking on sunshine here, I just love every experience that comes my way and I’ve learned to appreciate every little thing that happens to me. That could be freedom, I think.
summer freedom for me it means i can go on this city break whenever they want to send as far away. I`m always free for summer. xoxo
Summer of freedom means happiness, discovering new places, cool and sexy (smart) new people, having a late breakfast, smile a lot and wear hat, dress or skirt. That’s my summer of freedom. And i love it 😀
Simple: colors!
For me, “Summer of Freedom” means having the money you’ve worked so hard for over the year invested in collecting memories, not only things and, although traveling, still feeling like home wherever you go because you’ve got the one(s) who truly matter by your side. Cheers!
Being free is being yourself, enjoying every moment of your life, no matter the situation.
I’m a gemini, I talk a lot, I like talking and giving all sorts of details. Thing is I could write, and write, about what “Summer of Freedom” means to me in a few pages but I hope I can tell you in the trip all of the different angles from which I can define the concept. I’m a 21 years old psychology student from Constanta and the first thing that defines me is the connection I have with the Divinity. I am also a perfectionist and this is the main reason I’m harsh with myself…sooo I would say Summer of Freedom is the new path I’m walking on now, where I learn that new is good, sometimes even bad is good, given the fact that we learn so much from our mistakes. I challanged myself this summer to try new experiences and the outcome was very rewarding, resulting in the expansion of my self confidence. A trip with the coolest *lady-chick* I look up to, will top everything up and will allow me to shout ” IT’S A WRAP” on my Summer of FREEDOM in the most fancy way I could think of. Thank you for allowing me to dream about our trip and for making me ask myself this question. Sending you all of my positive energy :*
Being free is being yourself, enjoying every moment of your life, no matter the situation.
Summer of freedom would be the time dedicated to yourself.
A summer of freedom is a summer of spontaneous activities. Freedom is spontaneity, craziness and love. Freedom is being who you are, without compromising yourself.
“Summer of freedom” reprezinta pentru mine nebunie, iubire si relax… Fara prea multe interpretari si subintelesuri… Simplu…
Summer of freedom=dare to do what make you happy without overthinking
summer of freedom = freedom of soul, somewhere where original values are still valued, where people care of each other and mother earth is still in charge…
Freedom is also leaving a comment on Monday! Have a great week Ana! 🙂
Summer of freedom means for me the chance to discover my inner feelings and to gain experience.That s the way,I will improve a new version of me.
Summer of Freedom is one full of love, joy and music. I like to play my drums all around the new places i’ve been. Freedom means love, beauty and happy tunes for me. Music accompanies me everywhere, through all the fun times. So let’s lose ourselves into this musical summer of freedom!
Summer freedom….. freedom is a real word. Let see, summer freedom means to breath the air , a new air , and this simple thing to bring me happiness, summer freedom means a coffee in a very crowded square and me looking at those people, strangers , seeing what make them different and still the same , summer freedom means to feel the vibe of a new place and this is possible when you don t keep the time
Summer of freedom means to be able to sleep with just your panties on; it means knowing that you have the freedom to rise up and conquer the world, because the sun is shinning and so are you.
Freedom – means going on an escapade with my love and never returning! 🙂
Summer of Freedom means Sea, Sand and Sun!
what Summer of Freedom means for you? well my dear it`s the feeling that I invision as a state of peacefulness that I relate with a glass of wine, my dog, a book or some kind of chill music with an amazing view aka the sea, all while sitting in the arms of my lover….wait I am just doing that so what I can ask for a change is a city break with you crazy woman to spice up my summer and it`s feelings 😀
Summer Freedom is simply being YOU.
Summer of Freedom means sand, sun, skin and love. It means all the desires you secretly have, tea-cups drank with best friends, falling asleep reading awesome books and traveling till you won’t have feet anymore, you’ll have wings. Freedom wings. Summer of Freedom wings.
Summer of Freedom = to have a good summer, but not wasting time proving it
I’ve been thinking for days about leaving a comment, then I say your instagram saying there’s just one hour left to answer… so it must be a sign! Here goes: To me, Summer of Freedom means doing whatever the f*** I want without caring how people judge me. It’s me choosing to be happy for me, not for anyone else. As long as my actions don’t hurt me or anyone else, I don’t have to justify anything.
Summer of freedom is nothing but the feeling you get when everything’s going so good that you have to pinch yourself every now and then to make sure you are not dreaming. Summer of freedom is the little things like the smell of salt on your skin, watching a breathtaking sunset, going on a wild weekend with friends, being spontaneous at every step you make.
Summer of Freedom means careless moments spent on a beach, sipping cocktails all day long, swimming in the Sea, reading a good book on the sand, under an umbrella, dancing all night, staying up for sunrise, and repeat all the next day.
Summer of Freedom means no plans, no worries about tomorrow and a lot of read books, great views and fabulous memories to dream about in the upcoming months!
For me, Summer of Freedom means a lot of free time. Special time for reading, traveling, drinking tea and meeting new people. I would enjoy my Summer of Freedom more with a little bit of rain:)
basically the first thing that comes to my mind when saying “freedom” is waking up at whatever hour I want. Yes, I am a compulsive sleeper :)). Then reading a book on the beach would come second and third comes the compulsive shopping, preferably with friends that are at least as crazy as I am about vetements :)). Did I forget to include you in my shopping daydreaming? I did! shame on me! So yes, you gurl would be the perfect companion, I have to say!
Summer of freedom!
I need it to heal my soul, after the 7 years of a great relashionship. I admit it. It was my fault, i wanted a break. Now is a break forever! 🙁
What does Summer of Freedom mean to me?
It’s about waking up a little earlier than in the rest of the year, so that I can pull the curtains and enjoy the first rays of sunshine from my bed.
It’s about going to jog in the morning, as it is the perfect time of the year to do sports in nature, surrounded by happy trees and noisy birds.
It’s about getting into the Kingdom and Fruits, and leaving completely overfed, without caring that I might have gained some extra weight. Meheheh.
It’s about wearing my favorite diaphanous dresses everyday, and feeling like a “mimoza sclifosita”.
It’s about leaving my hair dry by itself, without fearing that I might catch a cold.
It’s about listening to summer songs on my way to work and imagining myself like going to a nice party on the lake, instead of a gloomy office.
It’s about sleeping with my window open, so that I can be woken up by birds in the morning, instead of a freaking annoying alarm.
It’s about laughing more often, with no particular reason, without worrying that other people might think I’m crazy (…or am I?!).
It’s about going to endless rooftop parties and dancing my ass off until 6 a.m., and then being carried off at home by my a-bit-too-drunk boyfriend, who still thinks I’m beautiful when I actually look like a mini-zombie.
It’s about getting reunited with my beloved grandmas, who still wait for me with the most wonderful smiles and best pies and raspberry syrup in the world.
It’s about spending more time with my family, and making fun of each other until one of us gets really pissed and changes the TV channel to “manele”, to annoy the others.
It’s about planning my favorite trip of the year- when I get reunited with the softest sand and the most azure waters.
And least but not least, it’s about anjoying every day of it, like it would really be the last one.
Cam asa. Sayonara!
Summer of freedom is the ideea I got reading your blog entries during this summer. The way you lived it colourfully and carelessly inspired me to change my image and job, to take chances. I would be honored and thrilled to meet you, dear Ana!
Summer of Freedom inseamna pentru mine libertatea de a alege ce vrei sa faci in viata!Libertatatea de a afce ceea ce te face fericita, indiferent de riscuri.Ceea ce ma face pe mine fericita in acest moment este demisia mea dupa 5 ani in care m-am simtit captiva.Acum voi lua totul de la 0 si voi scrie filele vietii mele cu incredere, dorinta si pasiune!Sumer of freedom inseamna pentru mine o alegere care sa-mi bucure inima 🙂 xoxo :*
