Updated on 15 March 2024: So I'm Rachel, pronounced Raquel. I currently live in a little city in the green heart of the Netherlands. I consider myself a child of the earth, a daughter of nature. I love to travel and will take any opportunity to do so. I'm a single mum, to a boisterous, happy 2½ year old boy; we're currently living with my parents as we find our feet after a turbulent few years in England.

I'm protecting my son's privacy by keeping his gorgeous face off social media (it's easier to explain why he didn't grow up on social media than to explain why he did).
