Ever since my friend Igor and I started our Urban Jungle Bloggers adventure last fall, I see green plants everywhere. Not only on blogs or in our home, but so many cafés, shops and restaurants use plants in their interior design and displays. Greens are definitely a thing right now and I love that! For Read article…

You Can Now London
If there's one talent that I developed in the past few years, it is to stumble upon the coolest places in the cities I visit. Maybe it's not a real talent, but simply luck and an overdose of cool hotspots in cities likes Stockholm, Antwerp, Berlin or Copenhagen. Anyway, I found some in London too Read article…
The colors of Notting Hill London
Our French weather man a.k.a. Monsieur Météo predicted a rainy weekend in London, but I was very very lucky: as soon as my Eurostar arrived at Saint Pancras station last week the sun came out and didn't disappear until I left four days later! Super convenient, because what I like best when visiting a city Read article…
#Blogtacular highlights
These are a few of my favorite quotes from speakers of Blogtacular, a creative blog conference I attended this weekend in London. Apart from top notch speakers, a great venue (The Royal Institution of Great Britain), my personal highlights were the more personal conversations I had with blog friends, old and new. During the weekend Read article…
sugar free Rhubarb cake
Rhubarb always reminds me of the sugary rhubarb compote my mom used to make us as a kid.

Lago views
Next week I'll be in London and because I expect it to be quite an urban trip, I'm "virtually" preparing myself with some airy views from our #blago2014 adventure. I love these pale blues at the Lago Maggiore and the Lago d'Orta at this time of the year. As well as the eternal snow on Read article…
Giant Papavers
The other day when visiting a vide-grenier with my sister, we bumped into these giant papavers in one of the community gardens. I was tempted to bring them home, but she insisted on only taking their picture. So I did. Always listen to your little sister, right? In the past months I photographed quite a Read article…
New Roman by Jaime Hayon
That was a nice green party right?! I loved the peek into so many bloggers homes and to see that many are enthusiastically growing plants, veggies & herbs at home. I still have a few photos from Milan that I'd like to show you today. Somehow the work of Jaime Hayon was everywhere in Milan: Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #8
For the eight time today, Igor and I are throwing a little green party. Or at least that's what our monthy Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge feels like to me. Afters lots of eggs, creative stylings and spring freshness in March, today is all about green window sills and balconies. Actually we don't have a single Read article…
Green Balconies in Milan
When strolling down the streets of Milan, I was pleasantly surprised by the omnipresence of greens! Of course the upcoming Urban Jungle Bloggers topic was in the back of my head: balconies & window sills, so I guess I was a little obsessed… So if you're looking for some last minute inspiration, look no further Read article…
