Yay, we're going to the mountains, it has been snowing and so we've decided to go to the mountains to snowboard: my very first time... We will arrive on Saturday morning because on the way to the mountains, we'll pass the Gorges du Verdon, a beautiful scenery so we've been told. We'll go hiking! emoticons/biggrin.gif It will be cold though so we went to Decathlon to buy ourselves the proper gear, coats, trousers, gloves, socks etc.

We arrived at our hotel, Hotellerie du Roc around 14.30, after checking in we went to explore the area. It's beautiful out there, really amazing views! We went for a drive and a short walk because it was already late and we wanted to be back on time before it gets dark, which is still quite early; around 17.00. We had a lovely meal that evening [about 19.00] at the restaurant of the hotel and because we were tired, we went to bed early. Also because we wanted to go for a long walk the next day...

Expat Life: I moved from Amsterdam to London, Aug. 2006. Things didn't quite work out as planned and I found myself on my own in a foreign country.

Reflection: 2007 Has been a difficult year but I've managed to accomplish a lot more than I thought I ever could. I've set up my own business, survived a serious health issue, met some amazing people and found my future...

Personality: At times stuck in a time warp of ideas and thoughts, Mixed Blood [Eurasian seems to be the fancy word for it: Indonesian and Dutch], typical Capricornish Goat, Sensitive, Crazy about Apple Macs and anything related, Gadget Girl, Intelligent, Psychological profiling of all kind, Sucker for all sorts of stuff that makes my OS run like: Coffee and Chocolate, Deep Thinker, Perfectionist, Foolish, Silly, Stubborn [WHAT?... ME? I don't think so... tsk, pffft....]

Indulgence: English full breakfast once in a while when not counting calories, Indonesian fried rice and a Sateh [Nasi Goreng] like my great grandma used to make, Thai Tom Ka Kai or Thai Green Curry Noodle soup original traditional recipes, definitely a peaty Islay Scotch preferably shared with my best friends in Scotland [Inge and Frank] and a Dutch coffee when I'm in Amsterdam with a piece of Dark Chocolate!
