How do you get from A to B? This question is fundamentally what much of education revolves around. Some tasks…
When what was always there is no longer there, when you are away from an environment where people expect things from you and/or you survive by adapting, you come to ask yourself, “What do I want?”
Of all the critters I encounter in Bonaire, the scorpion is the one that, in the negative sense, elicits the most reaction from me. I cannot look at the beast without making a sound or jumping up. A scorpion immediately puts me on edge and always produces the same thought: it has to go. NOW!
The past 5 years have been quite a roller coaster. Since I decided I was going to sell my web shop, there has been a lot of movement and a lot to overcome.

What do you do when the answer to the question “Are you doing what you love to do?” is no. Do you then put your head in the sand and hope that it will be more fun again, decide that you can’t have everything after all, or ask yourself how you can start turning that no into a yes?
