Welcome!
I’m Rachel, and I like to share my stories. I know what it’s like to start over in a new place, and how you then feel about the place you left behind.
Originally from the UK, I love exploring the rich culture of language, words and poetry from my home country. Now living in the Netherlands, I am learning about Dutch history and culture, and all the countries that we’re now connected to, and how our different histories shape us.
I love all kinds of live performance, and I set up the Facebook group ‘English speaking theatre in the Netherlands’ so I could better see what was going on in the city of Eindhoven where I live.
Eindhoven has a vibrant, international community, and is a great place for me to run my business Talentstorm, delivering people development solutions to organisations. I’m keen to share what I’ve learnt as a freelancer relocating my business to a new country.
‘My Father, Alan Carter’ – My first book!
I just wrote and published my first book! This was a deeply personal project, a memoir of my late father, who was an inspiration to me and many others. Writing it over four years was a labour of love, and am now keen to share the merits of recording family histories to anyone that will listen!
