I was looking some old stuff about my past work . I was kind of ( totally freak ) boss of a group of ladies working all around Europe in expositions about anime, manga and videogames . Basically : nerd stuff . I've started when I was 16 , now I'm 24 and last year I've made the decision to stay near my family and stop traveling . But sometimes, when I look to old photos , I remember why I've loved this work so much : my girls became sisters , I could have weared everything at work , and if someone say somethink about my tattos / piercing was "awesome ! " and not " you've ruined yourself ." I worked in the paradise of nerdy people like me and the truth is: I really miss it.
Coming back to "normal " life was really hard . It's hard to be different if you live in a little town . But even if now I cover my tattoos under my work uniform, even if I don't wear wigs and my hair turned from pink to natural brown, I always promise to myself that someday I will stop doing what people want me to do, and do what I really want for myself.
Love from the ex-freak-boss-bunny-in-red Clarie
ps: I've shooted this two photos in Paris during the Japan Expo!
