Leonie PostmaLife’s passions 
Do you even need a home?
It’s been a strange couple of weeks for me. I’ve been in four very different countries over the past four weeks. That’s not really strange. What is strange is how familiar they all felt.
The myth of the advantages of being on your own (while you have a partner)
Sometimes you take things so much for granted that you might forget how valuable they are.
Look on the bright side
For months, Sandra, Annelies, and I have been looking forward to our trek in Peru, we carefully prepared and trained, knowing it would be physically demanding. And even though our trip turned out quite different to how we expected, we almost loved every moment of it. At least in retrospect.
A reason to go back
With only two days left in Bolivia, I still had so much to see and do. How was I going to manage it all?
How we got to Bolivia
We had a great trip on our way to Bolivia, before we started the blog. A total of 16,539 km. This amazing, innovative interactive map gives you the details of where we went and how we got there.
The ‘Have you been there?’ rule
We spent four hours in Brazil. Had our passports stamped. Can we now claim to have been in Brazil? There’s a simple rule to apply to find out.
Where do they go? And what are they looking for?
Years ago, when I lived in a small village in Tanzania, my neighbours would ask about the travellers who pass by.
The man who shook Mao’s hand
We have an ambition to visit all the mummified remains of former communist dictators. Recently, we met a very special man who met many of them when they were still in power.
Easter weekend in Yambata
Easter weekend we finally got to visit Yambata, the village where Abad was born and grew up.
Leaving soon
Our first post on our travelling adventure and we have to announce that we won’t be staying. We came to Bolivia for four months. After just seven weeks we’ll be leaving … but where next?
