Life as an Expat has been quite busy this month. As in super busy. April is not even over yet but I have done loads, it was full of big things to be grateful for. One thing about moving abroad is that you get visitors. You also get more excited to travel, even if to the town next door. I remember my parents (mainly my dad's ideas) surprising us with day trips when we were small and teens. Obviously as a small child I had no say and as a teen I had a say, but I still had to go... I was not always excited to be stuck in the car with my parents and brother, but hey, these are the memories that I have now and I am truly grateful that we've had those bonding moments.
