Muara Makarim

Vertical Journey Muara Makarim

Diagnosed with cancer 9 months after losing her mom to cancer, Muara decided to travel non-stop for a year in a hope to be healed and happy. Leaving all the memories behind, she spent all of her money on plane tickets with Paris as her last travel destination. She spent time with her best friend strolling around the city, exchanging stories and reflecting on her life. Travel has enriched her life, but something felt missing, even in a city like Paris. What happened after that was a realization that she never experienced. She was one step closer to heal - but not in Paris.
