Recently moved back from Bali to my native Holland. Sometimes I catch myself talking about my third, fourth or fifth home. To make things a little easier, I consider the entire world my home, even if I conform to most stereotypes of a typical Dutch :)

Living in 'good old' Holland also means my wanderlust is peaking these days. After all, every place has its own unique flavour that deserves to be explored. If I do not feel like exploring new places, I'm lucky enough to have friends to visit in several places.
