One month to go until this blog will be gone. Well not completely gone, I’ve decided to move it to a subdomain of my oldest domain, one I got in October 2006. This domain name will be deleted though along with everything else that once was. I’ve started a new chapter in my life, one that I’m grateful for and I’m counting my blessings each day. I’ve bought a home near the sea and dunes, a light bright home with separate studio space where I can work on my jewellery. A home that brings me happiness ever since I’ve moved there on the eleventh of June this year.

I’ve been redecorating since… Every bit of spare time you’ll find me assembling wardrobes, shelving units, painting walls, putting wooden floors in throughout the apartment etc.etc. Every time I put my love and energy in this home it becomes more beautiful and brighter. I love the view of the sunset that I can see from my kitchen window (and studio window). I love the bright and light living room with the green, taupe and brown colours. Warm colours that create a calm, serene and peaceful oasis. My carnivorous plants are thriving!!! Just like me…

It’s the best decision I’ve made in years. I finally have no more stress in my life, well of course there is just, not the amount of stress that living in Amsterdam was giving me on a daily basis. The streets here are quiet, peaceful. No millions of tourists on one square metre that are trying to take over the once so beautiful city. The only way to enjoy that place was to walk through the quiet streets at night, the only time where Amsterdam would be Amsterdam again, how I used to know it, the city I once loved. But I have a different city to explore now!

A couple more months of decorating and I’ll have time to enjoy and explore, take on yoga classes again and continue with my jewellery business. But first things first. Finish redecorating and styling the studio (gonna be SO much fun!!!), build a raised floor with steps -Japanese style- and sliding doors in the bedroom. Move some of my furniture to the new home and after that it will all be just details to take care of: like buying some more cool plants and getting some accessories. Can’t wait to spend time cycling through the city finding new adventures on my way.

So it’s a new quest on an old domain This domain name reminds me of a time in London 13 years ago, it’s still a quest just not the one related to London, a brand new one. So time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new… Goodbye A Zestful Quest (.co.uk) 12/09/2007 – 12/09/2019.

I’ll leave the comments on for once, until deletion on the 12/09/2019
