Here is Yana Papaya, a founder, writer and events organiser at Papaya Stories. I am here to say Hi and also quickly introduce you to the world of Papaya Stories. It's an international inspiring project of mine that stands for community, self-love, self-development, mental health, creativity, arts and fulfilling your potential. We inspire YOU to live to the fullest through a lens of storytelling by featuring real-life stories about inspiring humans online - www.papayastories.com... - as well as through immersive and engaging events around Auckland. We are aspired to create a like-minded community and space where we would practice emotional and physical freedom, there is no room for labels, judgments, masks or stereotypes.
