All you need is Love - returning home
This is the video of my reunion with my family in The Netherlands at Mark's surprise party at work.
Mark's only wish for his 20-year work anniversary… was to be with me. But I've been solo sailing around the world for over 1,000 days. So his Xebia colleagues secretly flew me home as a surprise. No one knew — not even our son Sem.
It felt like a real-life episode of 'All You Need Is Love' — with happy tears everywhere.
I feel so blessed. Thank you, Xebia, for making this magic possible. ❤️
