Editing, writing, and English lessons
I believe in living with integrity and in choosing a lifestyle that shows respect for our environment. Although continually attracted to the idea of imminent success with the publication of my two novels, I am also greatly drawn to living simply and living well: loving my family and friends, and being aware and present for those moments in life--a spontaneous hug from my son, a smile to a stranger, moments of insight--that define real connection and success with peace, love and happiness.

What a fun post! This reminds me of a couple of months ago when I read the phrase “ga de boom in” on a pamphlet about trees and monkeys, and then promptly asked my boyfriend’s brother “Ga jij de boom in?” which resulted in a blank stare from him and a quick explanation from my boyfriend that I had just asked his brother if he was going to get out of there.
Gotta love Dutch, right?
