About me

Mireille comes from The Netherlands, has lived in Singapore and now calls Switzerland her home. She is married and has two children of primary school age. 

Reinventing oneself

When my husband changed jobs and we moved to a new continent, I had to quit my job and get used to a new environment, with no friends and no daily routine.

I had to create a new identity for myself, find my way in a new culture and get involved in a whole new life.

Step by step

After some time, I understood that it was important to take my time and take everything step by step. I learned the importance of being open to new discoveries and new possibilities to find a new life full of serenity and fulfilment.

After taking my first steps, my second move was already much easier. I had a more relaxed attitude, more courage and more experience. So, I decided to share my knowledge with other expat women by starting my online blog.
