Last weekend I went to watch my friend Penny run her first 5k. This was a huge thing for her and she had been working incredibly hard to get there, so there was no way I could miss it! I was so proud of all she has achieved over the last while, and I couldn’t wait to be there screaming …

Back in June I went on a day trip to the island of Texel (said “Tessel”) with my photography club. This is something I was really looking forward to as I’d not been to any of the Dutch islands in all the time I’ve been living here. It was a bit of a long way to go for a day …

Last week my friend Penny and I got together for pedicures. It was my very first pedicure ever, can you believe it?! It’s something I’ve always wanted to do but either I didn’t want to spend the money on it or I was freaked out about people messing with my feet. Penny kept pushing me on it, so I finally …

I’m baaaack! Actually I’ve been back for almost two weeks, but I’ve either been busy, didn’t feel like writing or was having issues with my host. Anyway, I’m here now and that’s what counts. Unfortunately, I don’t have any photos of the our time in France yet because I made a deal with myself that I’d catch up on all …

Back in November Xander and I got together with our friends Candace and Fran for a photo walk through the Veluwezoom. It was so beautiful and …

Saturday my friend Penny and I went into Rotterdam for a girl’s day before she leaves for holiday to California for three weeks. We shopped, had lunch, shopped, sat on some terraces and shopped. It was a beautiful with our first 20+ degree weather of the year. At the end of the day we went to watch a display that …

So, today is April Fool’s day… and it started out like this, when I sent out a warning to the internet on Twitter (and Facebook). You see, there are a lot of things I hate, cuz I’m like that, I’m a hater… and I really hate 1) being startled 2) being tricked. The reason for this is because it is …

Well, as promised after the Divas Day Out in Den Bosch I finally got around to working on the photos. I am glad I didn’t bring my good camera, but they didn’t turn out too bad with the point and shoot. There was shopping. Lots and lots of shopping… It started at LUSH where Paule and Penny were quite keen …

Today my friends Penny, Paule and I went for a girl’s day out in ‘s-Hertogenbosch (or Den Bosch, as most people call it). It was cold and rainy but we made the best of it and shopped, ate and just enjoyed each other’s company. Much like our visit to Bergen op Zoom we had a lot of fun browsing through …
