Yes, it's that time of the month again: time for a brand new Urban Jungle Bloggers post! Last month we showed you some cool urban jungles in our neighborhoods: Igor took us to a vibrant community garden in Vancouver, Jocelyn showed us around Planten un Blomen in Hamburg, Kate introduced us to a cool urban Read article…

Butternut squash spice cake
When in Marseille a few weeks ago, I stole one of these Halloween posters announcing the local Trick or Treat festival. It was designed by Sylvain Havec, a French illustrator. I love the clever use of neon orange and the hilarious illustration. Perfect or our kitchen door 😉 Not for too long though, because you Read article…
La Maison Pernoise
Shopping in the Provence can be very boring: lavender sachets, ceramic cicadas, table cloths with provencal prints… not the things I’d bring home. When I heard that a concept store opened in Pernes les Fontaines, in the middle of the Provence, I was intrigued. Last week I visited La Maison Pernoise and found it such Read article…
Where do you live?
"You live in an abandoned factory? Sounds cool!" I don't know how many times I've told our home story over the years. And don't get me wrong, I like talking about it, but a picture paints a thousand words 😉 Since our home is a recurring theme on my blog, I gathered a selection of Read article…
Hay House Copenhagen
Located on the 1st and 2nd floor of a downtown Copenhagen apartment, HAY HOUSE made me fall in love with pink again.

The only plant in full force is the honeydew plant. It's huge! I grew it in our greenhouse in the Read article…
What about orange?
What about the color orange? Do you like it? I'm particularly biased. I guess it has to do with the country where I grew up: Holland. Once a year, on King's Day, the entire country turns orange. People dress in orange, eat orange pastries, drink orange beer and homes are decorated in orange. And if Read article…
A floating hospital
When I told you that I'm fan of the weekend, I didn't know what the weekend had in store for us. Turns out I'm not a big fan of this past weekend. Even though I had lots of fun and was surrounded by my favorite people, it was also very stressful and included a visit Read article…
