Marjorie chats about her recent trip to Ireland, the UK, France, and Belgium, as well as what it was like working on the road (hello, digital nomad life!), and finally some news to share with you all.

(Please excuse the moment where I stumble over the word "moeder" instead of stumbling over the word "gueuze" in reference to Belgian beer... Moeder is the bar where I had the gueuze lambic beer. Would never be able to live with myself if I didn't correct the mistake here! -M)
