MY NOT-SO-SECRET DIARY

Welcome to My blog! My name is Victoria Pawar and I invite you to explore my site and all that I have to offer; perhaps it will help you through your own hard times and maybe ignite your passions.

I am an open book and hope I can help break down some boundaries for people who are afraid to tell their stories, who are afraid to be vulnerable and for people who may be afraid of what is to come.
