Bucket List – Swim in the Mediterranean

IMAGES Texel Trip

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 …

The whole Tsunami thing has really …

Abortionistas

I’m frustrated with my hair. I love that it’s so long but it costs a fortune to maintain. That is unless I just want to leave it completely natural. To dye my hair costs me about 70 euros. To dye it with streaks as well is about 115 euros. That sucks!! I’m so tired of the red, I’ve had it …

Hoek van Holland

Today is my mom and dad’s anniversary! They’ve been married for 32 years.. wow! That’s pretty great by today’s standards where divorce runs rampant. I put it on my calendar here on my website, making sure I didn’t forget!I forgot. I swear, I’m the most forgetful person I know, unless I forgot the other one. *Sigh* Anyway thankfully my parents …
