We have known each other for over 17 years already and we have seen each other go through several phases of our life. One of my favorites … Continue reading [WID0043] Guest Post by Suail: My Beautiful Journey To Motherhood
Committing To The Commitments
I spoke about making a new or another commitment in a blogpost I posted January of this year. About posting weekly and even several times a week. But lately I noted that when I feel worn out or my soul feels weary, I start to postpone. I wait for the energy to come back. I … Continue reading Committing To The Commitments

Summercamp ’22
I thought this was my first time camping or "summercamping", but I actually went to an end of the school year camp when I was 11 years old. We went by bicycle, it was the Netherlands with its menopausal weather, we were expected not to shower every day and were told to bring long socks … Continue reading Summercamp ’22

Please welcome the other adopted daughter, Rebeca. Also known as "Rebeca with a C". At least that's how she is known to me, among many other titles I've heard people call her.

“She Looks Like Me”
This morning when I went on Instagram and opened my aunties story I saw a post by @Aljazeeraenglish about the reactions little black children have when learning Disney's little mermaid Ariel is black. That now Ariel has the same skin colour as they have. Their genuine reaction. Their words. Their eyes. It all brought tears … Continue reading “She Looks Like Me”
[WID0037] Guest Post by Daisy: Hasta Pronto My Lovely Summer!
Hola guapos y guapas! Before I started writing this blog, I thought: let me read my previous blog first. And while I was reading that blog, I was like: oh my gashhh, so much has happened/changed since then! So, we (my boyfriend and I) did buy that Nardo Grey scooter, and we enjoyed it to … Continue reading [WID0037] Guest Post by Daisy: Hasta Pronto My Lovely Summer!
[WID0036] Guest Post by Maartje: What Is Love?
This photo above fits well with what I think about love. It's beautiful, everyone admires it, but what we can see is just "blurry": there is so much more to discover. I thought carefully about how to write a blog about love. Love is something we all know! Loving a parent, a partner, a son … Continue reading [WID0036] Guest Post by Maartje: What Is Love?
