Fetching RSS feed... please stand byAbout my life
In 2004 I moved to the US and married the love of my life. Here I was, a new immigrant in a foreign country, starting all over again: new job, new friends, and most of all, adjusting to a new culture. Although I speak English quite well, I was not familiar with a lot of rather common practices. This led to numerous fun and hilarious moments. A few months later my husband bought a house and a push lawn mover, and left for his first tour of duty to the Middle-East. Now I was really on my own, with no family living close-by. But I refused to pity myself, and instead, decided to embark on an adventure of a lifetime. Whether you are a new immigrant, a new military spouse or a new mom, you will definitely find some useful information on my website and my blog.
My favorite thing about being a mom
I love my daughter's passion for the simple things of life.
Just for fun: Books I recommend
When I become a mother, I was simply too busy to read novels. One day I discoved the author C.A. Belmond and I re-discovered my passion for reading. I just finished reading my 4th Nicholas Spark novel, and I am about to start my 5th one!
A few movies I recommend for your family, too
My daughter (34 months) and I love kids movies - well, I have not much of a choice... .
