My classmates were astonished when I took a 40-minute taxi ride just to have a particular egg tart, even though an average one was easily available nearby. 

But here’s a lesson I’ve embraced from my Italian friends: life is far too short for bad coffee or mediocre pizza. The extraordinary, whether it’s an egg tart, a perfect espresso, or a slice of cake, is always worth the journey. 

What holds meaning for you deserves your full dedication. Never settle, never compromise. The essence of life is in pursuing the things that awaken your spirit 💖

Quality over convenience, always seek the extraordinary. Life is too short to settle for mediocrity. Embrace what holds meaning, pursue what awakens your spirit. 💖
