Something About Me
- Jenn in Holland
- The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this: A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
I welcome you warmly.

My goodness, this is a really fantastic picture! Great composition, wonderful mood. I admire your creation.
ReplyDeleteReally good picture; somehow looks like a scene out of the early 1900s!!
ReplyDeleteNice shoes. I am not a collector of shoes, but I like to look at other people's shoes.
ReplyDeleteThose boots are so cool
ReplyDeleteYou are doing very well
Endurance shopping
Great pic and haiku, congrats!

ReplyDeleteCool shot! Interesting way to showcase the shoes!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I really like the boots on the left - lovely! Like the way you grouped the shot Jenn! Happy WW! (Another Lemur on mine today)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter just announced "Shoes for princesses!"
ReplyDeleteI really, really, REALLY like the two pairs with straps. Grown-up Mary Janes!
Nice little shoes u got there. Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteWhen I miss read your title and was confused about gardening shoes which think of a big pair of boots, especially with the swamp that my garden is at the moment...
ReplyDeleteGreat pic :-)
Fun photo and Haiku Jenn

What a cool photo!
ReplyDeleteKatja from Skimbaco
What a cool rock!!! Neat picture, and goes great with your haiku!! You are a much talented woman!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of those shoes! Makes me want to shop!
ReplyDeleteCool composition. I have to say though that I've been conditioned by countless photos of shoes resting by calm waters or a pair of shoes resting together on a blanket to imagine that such an image means folks just off camera cavorting about less than fully clothed. I was momentarily confused by the four pair of shoes as my mind panned off camera. Then I realized that that wasn't the intent and just appriciated the composition ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the shoes.
ReplyDeleteYou really have a gift for Haiku. You put me to shame!
My haiku for the day:
Pounding head, sore nose
Itchy eyes and snot snot snot
I hate allergies
I really really REALLY like your taste in shoes, esp the gray ones. Fun haiku!
ReplyDeleteI love all of those shoes.
ReplyDeleteI also love the way you have them displyed there. Very original.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy WW!
I. LOVE. THESE. SHOES.
ReplyDeleteYay for shoes! And everything else you got shopping. Ahhh, shopping. And these shoes? Yeah... very well done. Love them!
ReplyDeleteCan I say something? Well, I am anyway! There were 42 comments (before this one) on this post and only a dozen of then did not specifically mention shoes. Don't tell me that us women don't love new shoes!
ReplyDeletegreat shoe collections....I too have couple nike shoes in black but i guess these pairs looks great!...
ReplyDeletenice shoes, i like it, i like to have it with my nike shoes.
