So Far Away
contemplating this:
time; distance; friends; connections
and furthermore, love.
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.

this haiku makes me melancholic and makes me miss my friends on the other side of the world?
ReplyDeleteAre you homesick too right now?
Indeed. Missing someone.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's difficult to be so far away, isn't it? Even here in AZ I occasionally feel so far, far away from my family back east.
ReplyDeleteThis photo is perfect for your haiku! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the mood you have created with this post. Have a happy weekend!
