From a family of settlers to a non-settler herself...
Hallå and hello! I am American by citizenship however I have lived in Sweden and planning on moving to Ghana for several months. My blog entails stories from my travels as well as random ramblings and that sort. I am a big fan of adding photographs along side with my text to make it more... user friendly.
A little bit about myself: Well something rather comical- part of my family came to the United States to establish the colonies. However being the first to move away from the states is a bit strange to my family. My citizenship overall does not speak similarly to the way I feel towards my culture. It seems as though I have never felt connected to this culture I was bound to from birth. My life is full of surprises and wandering to find my cultural fit. If I am never to find one culture in which feels like the perfect fit, I feel as though my life will have not been a waste, rather a fully examined life and well worth every moment.
A wise man once said that 'not all who wander are lost' and I agree to the fullest degree. That is how I view my life.
Please feel welcome to freely read my blog and comment. I really enjoy Expat and blog following with people from all walks of life. Hope you enjoy!
I can speak English and limited Swedish
Cheers!
Nicole

Hello Sunnyvee!
I am planning now for January to move to Ghana. Sadly I was supposed to be there already but things didn't work out just yet to go. Studying at University of Ghana-Legon as well as probably doing an internship.
The feeling of taking your motherland for granted is definitely something I know the feeling of as well. But I love traveling and other cultures too much to stay put in the United States.
What do you do in France, if I may ask? Do you plan on visiting Ghana anytime in the next year?
Cheers! Will do!
