So this is the Story of My Life.
The Spanish Chronicles I've called it. The titel is inspired by a book that my best friend Daphne and I loved, about a girl named Alison. It was sharp and funny and I guess it was the kind of life we might have had if we were more brave and lived in a more exciting place during our teens. But I'm kinda glad we didn't as there were heaps of drugs involved. I always say I don't have the discipline to get addicted (to drugs).
Although I already live in Spain for nearly two years now, I decided I'd put my thoughts down about my life here and on a regular basis. In English. Not my mothertongue, but I chose to do this, so my English speaking friends can follow my blog and I get to keep up with the language.
Maybe I wasn't really ready before, but needed this time so far to order my thoughts and recover from a truly bumpy ride to were I am right now. Those of you who know me, understand what I'm talking about.
I started blogging about a year ago, with exactly the same goal, but thanks to a friend, I felt inspired to write more about my life, the thoughts and feelings I have in specific times of my life and not just let it pass by without remembering more than just the exciting stuff.
And right here, right now seems the best way to go about it.
Right now I am writing on a Friday evening, feeling relaxed about the work that I did this week and looking forward to a new weekend. As it is Semana Santa coming up here in Spain next week, I'm kinda glad it's gonna be a quiet weekend. My friend Paige will join us again after spending a few days in Tenerife and will stay another week with us in Seville to get the most out of spending time here in Spain before she leaves to persue her adventure around the Mediterrenean.
Spending time with her made me miss my friends even more. The friends I left behind at home in Holland and a friend I made while here in Spain who is currently finishing her studies in England. I'm sure sooner or later you will meet them throught my stories and get to know them through my eyes. Sometimes you meet people in your life, who you know will always be a big part in your life. You just click.
So, here we are. Let's hope I keep up with my promise and hopefully you will enjoy my stories.
