Am I still on time? Oh, whatever. Happy New Year!!! I wish you all a year filled with love and happiness. And should life bother you with any difficulties, I wish you the courage to face and experience them, trusting that things will get better over time. As my grandmother used to say: ‘I’m sure Read more…
The sun, breaking its way through the streets of Nice, a weekend in October. Perhaps it was driven by the force of love (that of my brother-in-law Paul and his girlfriend Klaske who tied the knot that weekend, to be more precise). Who knows… What I do know is that no matter the forces, we had such Read more…
Last weekend we returned from a nice and relaxing holiday in France/Italy. A little summary for those who are interested: Part 1 / a week in a mobile home on a cute little camping site close to Lake of Aiguebelette, near the French Alps. Perfectly sky blue lake, crispy fresh mountain air and – most important – Read more…
Why change a winning team? Yep, when I love something, I go all the way. I like to think of myself as the adventurous type, but unfortunately the opposite is true: I’m the boring type. I wear the same (crazy cool) (at least that’s what I like to think) outfit* over and over again, cook Read more…
So, talking about pumping… (yeah, I know, it’s been a while. This post has been waiting for months to be posted… Sorry!) Last year Oscar arrived to our little family. I said it before but I’am saying it again: the thankfulness and happiness – wow. This might be my own, sometimes (ok, since the birth Read more…
Photo taken last year, in a photo booth at Le 104 in Paris (the city of looove!). Valentine’s Day is not really my thing (I rather do something romantic on a regular day than conforming to the international calendar of love), but it’s a good excuse for sharing photos of you and your love. ;)
Yep, it was that time again: Summer on Vuurtoreneiland! We were lucky enough again to get tickets this year and went with our dear friends Lasse & Shino and Fleur & Fabian. Like last year the food was not perfect (the best part was actually the desert, which was really good), but the atmosphere is Read more…
Two weeks ago, we went searching for elderflower (not a difficult task – it’s everywhere right now) with our friends Fleur & Fabian, to make or own elderflower sirup (again – Daan made it the week before too, but obviously one can never have enough homemade elderflower sirup, so off we went). Finishing business was Read more…
Last Sunday we were invited by Tomek & Suzanne for a full monty 12-course lunch at their ‘living room restaurant’ SMAK. On Saturday SMAK was already open because of the international Restaurant Day, but Tomek and Suzanne decided to open their doors for another day (yay!!). Tomek is a chef, we first met him in a Read more…
Music. Manga. Machine. The grand finale of our tour (which was two weeks already, sorry for the delay in posting!) was in Den Bosch, where we went to see ‘War Sum Up’, a manga opera on the nature of war by Hotel Pro Forma (co-produced with the Latvian Radio Choir and the Latvian National Opera). It Read more…
As much as I love nature, at the end culture really inspires me the most. It just pleases me more aesthetically, at least generally. I’ve travelled a bit and although I have always loved it to be surrounded by nothing but nature (which can contain such awesomeness – think the vast landscapes of Mongolia, the Read more…
