About – Here I Am

One LOVE.

We’re all on a journey, and I want to share mine with you and hope that you’ll find a connection and share with me. I believe in our shared humanity and that we are all more alike, than we are different. The more we see each other and our common goodness, the more love we will create and bring to this world. One Love, BeLoveRs.

Here I Am is about being mindful and present, while staying positive amidst the chaos of life, all while learning, loving, laughing and sharing, messing up and living it up along the way.

I began this blog when we decided to move to Amsterdam for a year as Expats and counted down the days until our journey began.

Then I counted the days and shared the details from our adventures as Expats in the Netherlands- some exciting and some mundane, but our life nevertheless.

I’m currently writing about the process of settling back or repatriating, which means figuring out where we fit back into our old routines and establishing new ones.

  2. Dear Adriana,

    My name is Joyce and I work for ExpatFinder.com.
    ExpatFinder.com is a free one stop website for people preparing to move or working and living overseas. We provide a myriad of services for expatriates and we have over 2,000 articles to help and support the people moving around the world and we are now creating an interview section to help the expats with real life experiences!
    We quite enjoy your blog about living in Amsterdam, it is very interesting and informative. Would it be possible to interview you to further share some of your tips and feature some of your first hand experience as an Expat and your interview will be published on our Expat Interview section as a guide for our expat readers. The questions are mainly about the day to day lifestyle of an expat. If it would be possible, could you also send some photographs that we can use?
    Of course, if you accept, we can add a link to your blog or some of your website.
    The questions are enclosed, feel free to respond freely. You can return the doc with your answers if you accept this invitation.
    Thanks in advance and do let me know if you prefer other means to conduct this interview and we would be happy to accommodate your terms.

    Best regards,
    Joyce

  3. Hi Adriana — how nice to find your blog today! Your posts and photos are so cheerful, and I admire how you recognize your personal power and inspire readers to do likewise.

    This year I’ve resolved to improve my attitude and bring more kindness and joy to the world by discovering and commenting on a positive blog every day, while keeping a list on my own site. Yours is today’s entry. 🙂

    • Hi Meg – thank you so much for your kind words and choosing my blog to recognize. You made my day. I wish you all the best and love that we’re both practicing positive living and spreading joy!! Thanks again. 😉

  4. Hi Adriana,

    I wanted to drop you an email but couldn’t find your email address. We are launching Lunchbox in the Netherlands on January 19th, and I think our app might be a great fit for your readers. After all, good food and expat life is what we’re all about:-)

    Every once in a while it happens that you’re at the office and your colleagues are busy, or you’re abroad and don’t know anyone around. But you still want to enjoy lunch in good company. Lunchbox is an easy way to meet new people and hang out over lunch.

    I would be great if you can mention Lunchbox on your blog. Please have a look on our website (lunchboxapp.org) and send me an email.

    Cheers!
