Holanda: Que Loco, No?

¡Qué loco, no?
Que hace 749 años esta gran dama, Holanda, fue la reina de Europa.

¡Qué loco, no?
Que tengas que estar un poco loco para no solo entretener la idea de construir una ciudad bajo el agua, sino también lograr hacerlo.

¡Qué loco, no?
Que en cada rincón y en cada vuelta se descubran tantas curiosidades que sorprenden a algunos y desconciertan a otros.

¡Qué loco, no?
Que aquí estemos, entre canales, con edificios inclinados e iglesias escondidas.

¡Qué loco, no?
Que seas tan sensible y suave. Qué bello es sentir la existencia de una comunidad, pero también escuchar los debates del momento, al puro fuego de una liebre, picando lenguas y transformando identidades.

¡Qué loco, no?
Que ahora pueda descubrir este “país bajo” desde la ventana más alta que es la amistad. A través de sus ojos, y con experiencias perfectamente diseñadas para mí, he podido aprender una palabra nueva en cada vuelta. Primero fue fantastis y top, después dankjewel, y ahora, saboreando las cenas a la luz de las velas, mi espíritu siente el “Burgundian Bliss.”

¡Qué loco, no?
Que en esta ciudad tan majestuosa, y en este “país bajo” llamado “Holanda,” los haya encontrado, me haya encontrado, y que nos sigamos encontrando.

Es siempre seguir nuestro camino, sembrando semillas de amor que nos transforman.

But, what is home?

Home is not merely a number that forms an address, but that tender space that has allowed us to pour our full selves into

Home is not merely a series of interconnected walls, but the special space that allows us to move and grow in, always a work in progress

Home is not merely a place with large windows, but a space of daily rituals where we welcome in the sun and say goodnight to the starry night

Home is not merely the place we display all our pretty little things, but each object reflects both what we like and  who we once were

Home is not merely a sanctuary for candlelight dinners, but that intimate space that holds our deepest secrets, our darkest moments, and where our hearts have been comforted by a hug

Home is not merely a wild garden, but with the nurturing touch of a human hand it transforms into an abundant apple tree

Home is simply where the heart is, where we feel that infinite love, that zest for life itself, and where we pray that the best has yet to come.

Holland: Crazy, right?

Crazy, right? That 749 years ago this great lady, Holland, was the queen of Europe.

Crazy, right? That you have to be a little crazy not only to entertain the idea of building a city underwater, but to actually pull it off.

Crazy, right? That in every corner and around every turn, so many curiosities are discovered—some that surprise, others that bewilder.

Crazy, right? That here we are, among canals, with leaning buildings and hidden churches.

Crazy, right? That you are so sensitive and soft. How beautiful it is to feel the presence of a community, but also to hear the debates of the moment, in the pure fire of a hare, sparking tongues and transforming identities.

Crazy, right? That now I can discover this “low country” from the highest window—that of friendship. Through their eyes, and with experiences perfectly tailored for me, I’ve been able to learn a new word at every turn. First it was fantastis and top, then dankjewel, and now, savoring dinners by candlelight, my spirit feels the Burgundian Bliss.

Crazy, right? That in this majestic city, and in this “low country” called “Holland,” I found them, I found myself, and we keep finding one another.

It’s always about continuing on our path, planting seeds of love that transform us.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
