August 20th. I'm having my 39th birthday today. For many years, I have celebrated my birthday abroad, with Hubby and our friends. That's the way I like it! I like to have a good time on my birthday. In my youth, I haven't had much fun birthdays, and maybe that's why I have always wanted that day to pass quickly. But not any more. For the last 10 something years, I have really celebrated that special day. And why not? After all, it's a great opportunity to celebrate life. The first happy birthday I remember, is the first birthday I celebrated in the States. In Portland, Oregon, to be exact. For the first time, I really had a birthday party just for me! With loads of cards and presents and beloved ones around me! The following year, I celebrated my birthday in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. Another birthday to remember! My American host family threw a wonderful birthday party for me and they invited my at the time boyfriend and my friends who were also working as au pairs. Nothing could go wrong from then on.
I still find it pretty special to celebrate my birthday abroad. Being around people you cherish, in a pleasant place, with nothing but good memories. Yes, I'm a very lucky girl. And I'm having a ball!
You don't know me yet, maybe you do. If you don't, you will get to know me by reading this blog. If you know me, you might learn more about me, reading this blog, since I don't have the time to keep up with all of you. I'm a witty, young at heart hobby cook, always in for a good time, craving carbs but not eating many. An open book to many, spontaneous, outgoing, loving and caring personality with Type 1 diabetes.
