リリー＝ローズ・メロディのインスタグラム(lilyrose) - 11月7日 23時47分

Just to clarify something regarding the caption below: What I was trying to say was basically that I hate the fact that sometimes by trying to get the best photo for Instragram you would forget to live the moment and you don’t experience things the way you should when traveling. I’m not depressed or something ? And I still love being here and sharing here . I’m not going anywhere ? I just don’t like the fact that trying to keep up with with social media change the way you experience travel! .

I think I got a bit lost. Lost in this whole social media thing. Lately it just feels like I want to run away form it.
I’m a traveler at heart. I quit my 9-5 job to travel when it wasn’t such a cool thing to do just to make it on Instagram. I did it cause I wanted to experience the world. Nowadays my travels feels really differents. I’m putting so much pressure on myself, cause I don’t want to disappoint, you guys and myself. I’m focusing so much on getting the shots and keeping up with this social media crazyness that I forget to enjoy life and live the moment. I would get frustrated by thinking that my work is not as good as my fellow travel photographer’s work. It’s a lot of frustration when really it shouldn’t be. Sometimes I’d caught myself not taking a photo just because “it wouldn’t work on Instagram anyways”. I mean wtf?! It really breaks my heart as this is not who I am and this is definitely not who I want to be. I hate that this app made things change that way. Don’t get me wrong I’ll be forever grateful for it and the amazing friends and opportunities it brought me ?? but I really hate the fact it changed me. I think it’s time for things to get back to normal ??!!
Was on the phone with a friend tonight and we talked about all of this. It hurt but felt good at the same time to say it out loud. I thought I would also put it down here...
While I’m packing for Japan right now I’m really looking forward to experience this incredible country to the fullest. Fuck focusing on getting the shot.
