Top 5 Online Workout Videos // Getting Quarantoned
It’s been just under a month since our lockdown in Paris started, and my life has basically been taken over by online workout videos. Since I don’t have my twice-weekly floorball practices OR access to the gym (that I can literally see from my living room window), I picked up my pre-Paris regime of following some online fitness gurus. AND today, inspired by the queen Lindsay Silberman, I’m sharing my favs that can help us all get quarantoned. … View Post

Loves of the Last Month // Getting Married Edition
I know it’s a cliché, but it really was one of the best days of my life. And it was worth the almost-seven-year wait. Every. Single. Second. I promise this isn’t going to be some loved-up dedication to my husband – though he’s obviously the best – but rather a – ahem – simple post to let me reminisce about the 11th of October 2019 for as long as this blog exists (aka forever because the internet will never die). … View Post

When people tell you that the locals leave Paris in August like the ground inside the périphérique is lava, they’re not wrong.

5 local spots in Gent I think you should …
I’ve been living in Gent just over 4 years, so I like to think of myself as a faux-cal – long enough that I know some spots and know them well, but not long enough that I know everything – unlike one of my expat friends who somehow knows every 👏 single 👏 good 👏 spot 👏 in this city. But like I said, I like to think that I know at least something, so below, my favourite spots for a niiiiiiice glass of something to hit the spot when you need it. … View Post
