Dear All,
After a very long period of silence, I am sure that some of you will wonder what has happened to me in the last months. Fact is that I have been travelling a fair bit in New Zealand, exploring different parts of the country while job hunting at the same time.
I have decided to leave Auckland behind to try my luck elsewhere and that is how I ended up in Napier, a lovely town on the east side of the North Island. I enjoy exploring a completely new environment. This, in combination with gorgeous weather, colours my days in a very pleasant way.
This is a message to thank you all for having walked with me during the last months. I have enjoyed writing my story down and I do hope that you have enjoyed reading it. This is not a final goodbye, but I would like to take a break from the blogging in order to concentrate fully on my future. For those who would like to learn where I am, what I am doing, you are more than welcome to contact me via my e-mail address. In case my inbox ends up being inundated with mails, I can always pick up the blogging again ...
My long journey through the world has changed me. Fear for the unknown has converted to certainty. The doubt, which reigned in me, has changed into the knowledge that there is a life for me after Varlet Farm. As much as I have loved running the B&B, as much as I miss the contact with that many guests, who have become friends over the years: it was time to move on, searching for new challenges and goals in life. Not for a split second have I regretted my decision and whilst I am very much aware of the fact that the future might not be as easy as initially anticipated, I have found the belief in myself.
Before drawing to an end, I wish all those people who live with doubts in their hearts, the strength to take decisions. I have learned that there are that many men and women, who feel themselves trapped in a situation but seem to be lacking the courage to do something about it... Belief in yourself, follow your dream, life is too short to let it pass by with the risk of ending up, having nothing but regrets.
Warm wishes
charlotte
