Over mij

“Dosvision” can be interpreted in two ways: read it without the apostrophe and it will come close to the Spanish “Dos Visiones”, which is literally translated into “Two visions” or “Two perspectives”. Born from the idea that I can understand every situation and motive. If you would read the name of my blog as “Do’s Vision” the name will speak for itself: my vision of everything. Considering that I have a great love for writing for a while now, this won’t be a typical travel-blog where I’ll just describe my days and activities. What kind of blog this will be… you’ll know when you’ll read it.

Concerning information about myself: If you already know me, I’ll always surprise you and in case you don’t know me yet: reading the chapters of my blog, will let you get to know me better.

As you may have noticed: I’m from the Netherlands, but I’m writing in English. I actually started writing in Dutch, but after two days that I’ve arrived in New Zealand I noticed that I wasn’t thinking in Dutch anymore, but in English! It got harder for me to write in my own language, because I didn’t use it in my new daily traveling life. Besides that, I’ve met so many travellers that wanted to read my blog as well that I had no other option than to write in English. Because I’m thinking of a career as a writer I thought that this blog would be a perfect way to start.

So my dear readers and followers:

Read with fast eyes, Smile with your heart and Sympathize with your soul.:D

Over mijn reis

About my trip:

For years I’ve been dreaming about traveling the world, I always had the feeling that there had to be more than the Netherlands that I was born and raised in. I knew that I would travel by myself, but I didn’t know if I’d do that because I wanted it or because I thought I had to. Because of fear and insecurity I turned every reason into an excuse: a new job, study, a future that I wasn’t sure of, a boyfriend, living together… I had kept myself away from this unknown love for so long, that I lost myself more and more. I wasn’t “my Do” any more and it would be so hard to become that person again who could chase dreams, felt continuous energy for life and was able to see everything in several perspectives. I wouldn’t be able to do it in a country where I’ve felt safe for 27 years. I had to get out of my comfort zone, find my inspiration, acknowledge and appreciate emotions instead of the deadly numbness that inhibiting me.

I saved money for a trip to Jamaica where i would do some volunteering jobs when I realized that I could use the money to go to “a country that I would like to visit someday, but that wasn’t at the top of my list” or… I could use the money for a trip to a country that would combine my love for nature and film: New Zealand. A stage that doesn’t need to be fitted, a land that has been (sort of) untouched because of the extreme measurements for protection and a piece of nature as it was always meant to be.

So I saved money for this dream destination. New Zealand, where I hope to find my inspiration again, meet true peace and to catch a glimpse of the (for me) unknown concept of “happiness”.

And as long as I’m on this side of the planet…I’ll visit Australia as well :)
