• So today, to my big disappointment, she was mentioned again : the saint, responsible for the the heavy thunderstorms around the end of the month august. She is called Santa Rosa. It turns out that she has completely lost track of time. She is due around the end of august, a…

  • The weather gods haven’t really been at our sides lately, and there are even more rainy days to come. Now that the Olympics are coming to an end there is no excuse to stay inside and it is more then time to get away from that TV screen and do…

  • Acá!

    Its been almost 3 years since I moved here. So you would think my Spanish is quite good, wouldn’t you? Actually, I speak Spanish, I read Spanish, I sing in Spanish, sometimes I even dream in Spanish. I am getting more fluent every day, trying my best to fit in…

  • B.N.D.

    It took me a while to realize that B.N.D. stands for ‘Belgian National Day’. Obviously this post comes with a bit of a delay, as the Belgian national holiday is on July 21. Maybe you already know that my country of origin, Belgium, is quite a complicated one. As a…

  • Eva and Ricky…

    Argentina is automatically connected with Evita. One of the typical reactions to whoever I say that I am living in Argentina -one I already get bored-  is that they start singing “don’t cry for me Argentina”. Of course, that is the Evita everyone seems to know, the one of the…

  • Negativity

    Coming back from a long trip abroad, I was struck by negativity. People complaining. Prices have gone up again, the import restrictions are really starting to show, and after winter holidays it seems clear that it is virtually impossible for Argentines to get dollars to travel. What will the future…

  • Elsa and Fred

    I seem to have found my way to the Argentine movies, here is another jewel. Elsa and Fred. It is the story of Elsa, a woman in her late 70s, who talks too much, lies all the time but most importantly, has the spirit of a teenager. She does all…

  • Church of tango

    One of my fellow-bloggers in Argentina, Cherie Magnus, also known as Tangocherie, has written down her memoirs. The books starts at the point in her life when everything changes. She becomes a widow at too young an age -early 40- and she finds herself alone, with 2 grown up sons.…

  • Silent protest…

    This is not my first Cacerolazo, my first one was on somewhere in 2008, when K. took a few decisions to bring the agriculture (el campo), down. Protests were long, day after day, for weeks. Every evening at 8 pm people would open their windows, or just stand in front…

  • The White Elephant

    El Elefante Blanco is the latest, very powerful (Argentine/French/Spanish) movie by Pablo Trapero, with Ricardo Darin, Jeremie Renier and Martina Glusman. It is the story of father Julian and (the Belgian) father Nicolas, who (among others) are trying to help the people that live in the villas (slums). From minute…

I love sharing stories from my journey toward feeling good and living a happy, healthy life. I’m especially fascinated by Human Design and how it can help life feel more aligned and easeful. If I can make even one reader smile or offer a small insight that improves someone’s life, then I’ve done my job. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
