An acquaintance from Switzerland walked part of the Camino de Santiago a month ago. Listening to her stories felt so inspiring, empowering, and adventurous that I found myself dreaming of walking across the Netherlands for the month of May — to heal, let go of what I had been carrying for so long, and recharge.
I never quite managed the walking part.
Instead, I made a different commitment: to consciously bring more joy and lightness into my life throughout May. I followed what naturally called to me. The beautiful weather. Fifty shades of green. The soft light after sunset. The changing colours of the sky. Flowers blooming everywhere. Kind souls crossing my path through my work.
And somehow, it all worked.
I feel like I am coming back to myself. A little more healed. Almost fully recharged. Ready to breathe deeply again.
A few moments from May:
1 -6 Beautiful Madrid — a spontaneous weekend away with my other half, while also catching up with dear friends. It seems I’ve collected more friends around the globe than in the place I currently call home.
3- More belly laughs, please.
7 - 10 Discovering the lesser-known architectural and cultural treasures of Utrecht with a voice-guided walking tour .eu
11 - 12- About as close as you’ll ever see me get to horse riding. & Horse petting with my darling daughter.
13 - 14 Olive oil stories and all things green — exactly my kind of thing.
15 - Me in a dress a cherished timeless piece — for Adi’s . Such warm hospitality, delicious food, and a lovely occasion to exchange clothes and stories.
16- 17 Antwerp-ing, a favourite.
18 - Me and Muffin, wishing you a beautiful summer.
As for me, I’ve set my intention for the season ahead: connection and creating new memories.
Have you set yours? 🌿
