Denise Watson

My name is Denise Watson and I am an ‘expat’. In February 2006, Hubby and I decided to up sticks: I’m talking lock, stock and barrel and, well, that meant no going back. The grass always seems greener on the other side, doesn’t it but there are certain things that a ‘Brit’ can’t find elsewhere but on home ground. There’s the tourist Spain you know and then there’s the Spain we are living in, twelve hours north by car! As a qualified counsellor (I now supply my service by phone (www.counsellorbyphone.com)), I had to give myself a right listening to, to get my head round this new lifestyle. The result ….. ‘did Hubby and I do the right thing?’
If you’d like to know more, please call in for a virtual cuppa at www.scrapbook-of-life.com and learn that your British grass may just be the greenest!

New adventures

New adventures, those we choose, are always so exciting, aren’t they? Initially for some, being outside of one’s comfort zone may feel a bit frightening but, like anything new (e.g. one iPhone to another), we can eventually accept the change and decide ‘well, that wasn’t so bad after all.’ With such changes, whether big or small, we grow. Depending on the type of experience (e.g. learning how to operate that new iPhone, realising a mistake about a relationship, failing an important exam etc.), we grow in understanding. From what we learn, we have a better idea of the next step.
