Nic Scholtysik
Interior Designer, serial expat, and lover of foreign accents Nicole Scholtysik wants to know: How do you actively create belonging? How do you build a home when you are actually away from home? How do you get comfortable in a new country and culture? And how do you shed an old identity and take on a new one that is the best of all you have experienced so far in life? HOW do you build 'A Home Worth Having' and leave other peoples expectations outside on the doormat?

Instead of just having a coffee-to-go every once in a while we created an entire eco-system that led us living ‘a life-to-go’. is this really what we want?
