The Story of My Chapka
On my last day at the hotel, one of my colleagues handed me a farewell gift: a Chapka.
At first, I laughed. Never in my life did I think this hat would become such an important part of my story.
But somehow, it did.
The Chapka turned into much more than just something to keep my head warm. It became a symbol of fun, of friendship, of good memories. Wherever it goes, it spreads laughter. Somehow, this fluffy hat makes everyone want to try it on, strike a pose, and suddenly a normal moment becomes a small celebration.
It’s versatile too. Despite its very “Lapland” look, it has the power to suit everyone. Each time a new friend wears it, it transforms them a little, always bringing out their playful side.
Now I take it everywhere with me. It’s been the star of countless photoshoots, the unexpected highlight of so many nights out, and a constant reminder that joy often hides in the simplest things.
Before I share some of these pictures, I would like to thank Maher for this gift. You didn’t just give me a hat, you gave me a source of endless fun and memories I’ll carry with me for a long time.
