    Last dinner out at Il Campanile and last field hockey game | Merels week #3

    /

    Last week began with some dreary days, but the last days of the week were full of summer. I worked at home with Julia, went out to dinner and played the last field hockey game of the season. Ooh and I accidentally took a detour home because I was too distracted by a phone conversation with my mom and low-flying hot air balloons. Monday This week started with a day off for a change and that was wonderful. I finally had time to finish some overdue to do’s like my administration. Also, my dad came over to hang some picture…

    First dinner with my dining group and 900 cups of lemonade | Merels week #2

    Monday After the weekend, I always have to get used to the fact that the work week has started again. Luckily we started the day with cake because we wanted to unveil the new logo of one of our products. That afternoon we had sausage rolls to celebrate a colleague’s 10 years of service. I declined those because I consciously choose to eat meat at most once a week. That evening I did a pilates class at the gym and did a few things for my blog. Tuesday A perfectly normal work day and at the end of the day…

    Merels week #1

    /

    It’s been pretty quiet on my blog for quite a while. But now that I’ve blown out 29 candles, I know it for sure: I’m restarting my blog. I’m excited to write articles again, and share not only about my travels, but just everyday life. So here we go! Monday The new work week has started, and I’ve worked at the office for the day (which is pretty standard). All day long I thought I was going to pilates class after work, but by the end of the afternoon I realized I wouldn’t have been able to make it to the…

    Backpacking in Asia – Week 2

    /

    I am currently solo traveling in southeast Asia. On my blog I am sharing my weekly experiences during my trip. This time I am writing all about my days in Kanchanaburi, visiting an ethical (hands-off) elephant sanctuary and Songkran in Bangkok. Monday, April 8 – Travel day to Kanchanaburi  Once again a travel day was scheduled. This time from Ayutthaya to Kanchanaburi. Through my guesthouse I had booked a minivan that picked me up at my hotel in the morning. On the way I mostly slept and looked out the window a bit. In Kanchanaburi I had lunch at a…

    Backpacking in southeast Asia – Week 1

    / No Comments

    Even though I regularly share my adventures in Asia on Polarsteps, I also want to share some updates from this special trip here on my blog. I would like to share everything I experienced during my first week in Thailand. Later I will link to more extensive blogs about the different activities in Asia.  Monday, April 1 – the day before departure It feels very unrealistic that my big trip is now so close. Backpacking in Asia always felt like something I would like to do someday in the future. And now suddenly my solo adventure is only one day…
