A’damsel in De-stress

A’damsel in De-stress

Welkom to the current residence of AtM: The Netherlands. I moved from America to Amsterdam 8 years ago with my golden retriever and started my expat life at a new company. A lot has happened over these 8 years – the people I have met (and lost), the places I have traveled, the life experiences and moments, the dinners and parties I have hosted, and how I have evolved as a person and embraced a new view of my life purpose.

I’m a bubbly person with A LOT of energy and ambition, but also quite happy now I have no choice at the grocery store, and can enjoy a life that just feels a bit more ‘relaxed’. But, it wasn’t like that in the beginning and I can look back at some of the stressful moments and experiences and have a good laugh at myself.
