Velcome to my blog!


Now that there is just one month to go before I as the last of family members leave the Netherlands, I guess it is about time to start blogging about our journey.

Hubby is leaving to Tanzania already in ten days, and I will be following him three weeks later, just few days after furry creatures. Actually I just bought the tickets today, so now it finally actually starts to feel real. We really ARE moving to Dar es Salaam!

Of course we have been busy bees planning and preparing for this for several months now. But just now it really starts feeling real, and at least myself I wasn't really anxious about it until now. There are still 1000 small things to do & remember, aside the big ones. I guess I have to arrive first to learn the "hakuna matata" attitude.

But we are really very excited and happy about this change! We need the excitement and difficulties to feel that we are doing something with our lives. I believe leaving your comfort zone every once in a while, no matter what way you do it, is just healthy.

So feel velcome to join the journey! Couple of warnings though. Firstly, I do not yet have any clear idea, where this safari will be taking us (duh, to Tanzania for starters, of course...). But when do you actually know that in life? Secondly, although this is not going to be a "vegan blog", it is written by a vegan animal rights activist. So bear that in mind... I am sure will be handling those issues from time to time as well. Also, it's the first time that I will be blogging in English*, so it might be a bit rough start. My apologies for that already now!

* There have been some rather unsuccessful attempts at blogging before from my part. The most stamina I showed when we were living in Ethiopia. But that was something rather private just for family & friends, and  only in Finnish. So no reference to that here, I'm afraid.
