Tuesday 11 November And so the trip has started! Well actually, it had started already some days before, and actually way before that. But ok, today is the day I’m going back to Guiné Bissau on mission! On such a beautiful date as well, the 11th of the 11th. This traveling ride to Guiné Bissau … Continue reading Mission 2.0 – Week 1: Here But Not Completely Here Yet

How To Be A Daughter?
The answer to that, I did not know. It may sound weird, because once we're born, I guess we're all automatically sons and daughters. But think about it. If parents, who become parents once their children are born, have preparation courses and books on how to parent and be parents. And they spend years learning … Continue reading How To Be A Daughter?
When The Urge to Sprout Is Stronger Than The Urge to Stay Buried
26-10-2025Waking up in the morning with the urge to write… to put it back out there, to release, let go, open my arms and jump again. Trusting, freely, lightly. With “leveza”. Now one of my new favourite words in Portuguese. But actually, no, that’s not correct; I didn’t wake up with the urge to write. … Continue reading When The Urge to Sprout Is Stronger Than The Urge to Stay Buried
Reign in The Garden
My plan was to park here, right in between this hotel or Airbnb and the ocean. This little hidden corner, with a ramp, some stairs and a tiny sandy beach to enter the water.

A Bonfire In The Garden
30-8-2025What to do with all the pruned debris and pulled out weeds from when Nurturing My Heart's Garden? Well... we have a bonfire! A marvellous, a wonderful, a heart-warming bonfire. A fire that keeps growing as I continue to throw debris on the bundle. Cleaning and clearing are so satisfying. I love organising, but my … Continue reading A Bonfire In The Garden
Nurturing My Heart’s Garden
It's been a while since I properly sat down and wrote a full-on piece. Not just a short text message, a small commentary on a post or episode where I don't have to think or reflect too much on, or bits and pieces of the day or moments that happen. No, I'm now sitting down … Continue reading Nurturing My Heart’s Garden

In this episode I have a conversation with Mamadu Seide, from the Tabanane village in Guinea Bissau. Which is where I was in the month of May for two weeks.

[SWS0021] Guest Post by Suail: Sisterhood in the Bible — Women Strengthening Women
Throughout Scripture, we see the power of sisterhood—women walking together, lifting each other up, and playing vital roles in God’s unfolding story. Sisterhood isn’t just about being biologically related. It’s about connection, unity, loyalty, and shared purpose under God. In today’s world, where comparison and isolation often creep in, biblical sisterhood reminds us: you’re not … Continue reading [SWS0021] Guest Post by Suail: Sisterhood in the Bible — Women Strengthening Women
