It's one of my very rare blog traditions to reveal you our wooden tree on Christmas morning. After an intense year which included tons of Urban Jungle Bloggers fun, it was an obvious choice to dress the tree in little succulents. From newborn babies to toddlers grown from inherited plants, travel cuttings, succulent gifts, Ikea Read article…
All
Merry & Bright
There's not a single blogger I know that takes their own pictures who isn't complaining about the light in these dark days before Christmas. It's not ideal, but well… let's hope Christmas will be merry & bright! Our home is slowly getting dressed for Christmas, so I also wanted a new fresh poster on our Read article…
Paper snowflakes
It's one of these unwritten Dutch traditions to decorate your home for Christmas only after the Saint Nicholas celebrations. But my hands were itching last week (due to #UJBXMAS of course!) and I took out the lights, balls and Lego Advent calendar. And I kept my hands busy by cutting a few paper snowflakes and Read article…
My London tips
By popular demand I gathered some of my favorite places in London (oh and I also updated my Paris tips!): As usual my first citrytrip tip is: simply walk around. It's my favorite way to discover a city and get a sens of its size, the different areas, the people and the more uncommon areas Read article…
A glorious Saturday walk
Last week was so dark, with short grey days and I spent a little too much time in front of the screen. On Saturday I couldn't wait to get out of the house, so we went on an early Sunday walk and it was just glorious. Fresh and sunny: I loved it so much. We Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #14
The days are so short this week that I almost considered taking these pictures in the middle of the night. It could have been a nice experiment, but well… I need my sleep 😉 In a cosy and green bedroom of course! After Igor and I decided upon this month's Urban Jungle Bloggers topic, I Read article…
Artist’s Entrance Middelheim in Antwerp
This weekend I was in Antwerp with my family and besides some shopping, we spent an afternoon at the Middelheim Museum park. Even though it was wet and cloudy, it was lovely to stroll around the Museum park. This curvy red, white, pink building is one of the entrances of the park. At first I Read article…
Green Factory in Paris
Last night was the official opening of a wonderful new green place in Paris: Green Factory. Unfortunately I couldn't make it, but I was lucky to visit a few weeks ago and seriously: if you are an Urban Jungle Blogger, you want to add this place to your Paris list. And even if you're not Read article…
Our bathroom renovation #3
Oh yeah! Another bathroom renovation update, because things are slowly starting to look like a real bathroom! The plumbing is done, the walls are up and we even have two little circle windows! I think they are the coolest feature yet, not only because I love circles but even more so because they keep our Read article…
sunset over Paris
Paris is always a good idea. It's so cheesy but when filming for Urban Jungle Bloggers in Paris last weekend, we just had to include a rooftop view. We were lucky to be there during Golden Hour. Just minutes after we finished shooting, the sun went behind the clouds and "the moment" was over. I've Read article…
