Did you ever come upon something so remarkable and unexpected that it actually took your breath away? I’m not often rendered speechless, but that’s exactly what happened to me on our trip to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring… View Post
Okay, I know this version is a day late, but that’s because I turned 29 this weekend (and consequently had a lot of naps to recover my strength over the last few days…)! It’s been a bit of a whirlwind… View Post
It’s been another crazy week, but luckily out Dry February (or Tournée Minérale as they like to call it here) is over and I was finally able to have a nice glass of wine on Friday night after a great night… View Post
Oh man, this week has been tough. We’re finally in our last week of Dry February and I seriously could have used a glass of wine on Tuesday and Thursday of this week. Hell doesn’t even begin to describe it!… View Post
Oh man – what a week! Valentine’s day dinner was delish, I got some great news on Friday (see my last love), I officially joined my floorball team, and spring is finally here (though while I love the warmth, it’s… View Post
Another week in the early part of the year, another week of early bedtimes and restless nights. Let’s just say that this week my list of loves is a bit shorter than the last. I signed up for the #5SmartReads newsletter by… View Post
This week has been long. It’s honestly hard to believe that we only got back from celebrating PJ’s graduation in London on Tuesday because it feels like it’s been a lifetime since then. So. I’ve been thinking, and there are… View Post
Let’s clear things up first: I loooooove snail mail. But I’m also extraordinarily bad at 1) buying international stamps 2) going to the post office and, most importantly 3) writing. I have the handwriting of a 7-year-old. It’s so chicken-scratchy… View Post
I’ve been on the hunt for the best mascara for the better part of 14 years. Everyone knows it – my best friend’s mom asked me my newest preferences at her daughter’s wedding this summer; a college friend asked me… View Post
Now that I’ve had some time to decompress and get back into the regular swing of things, I can very easily say that my favourite parts of Marrakesh were the rooftop views from each area of the city. Jemaa El-Fna… View Post
To celebrate 6 years together, PJ and I travelled to a place we’d never been before – Marrakesh! It came about in a pretty funny away: we were searching for a good November location and each thought that the other… View Post
This weekend we had such a nice time exploring Boulogne-sur-Mer. I’m not entirely sure what inspired our trip there, but we got talking and immediately decided it was the perfect Autumn weekend destination because 1) the sea and 2) the… View Post
This weekend, PJ and I decided to do a little bit of exploring in one of his favourite cities by the coast: Oostende. The city has had different mural artists come in over the last couple of years to give… View Post
Oh heLLO beautiful! I mean, I’m talking initially about the blouse but that model is a beaut too. I won’t lie, I had an “Is this cute or ugly?” moment when I first saw this. I mean, the blue to… View Post
AKA Gentse Feesten Friday 2018 I’m not going to lie – I was a horrible grump this past Friday. I worked all day, got an email I didn’t like and became tired before we even left the house. And I… View Post
I went into town way too early for a haircut yesterday, and after a Starbucks pick-me-up in order to make it to opening times, I popped into Zara to take advantage of the zero people inside the store. I’ve had my… View Post
It’s almost the end of Feb, so obviously I’m dreaming of sunshine and warmer temperatures. BUT I live in Belgium, so my blue-sky hopes are usually dashed on the daily. A girl can dream though, right? I mean, I am… View Post
Did you ever go somewhere and fall in love at first sight? That’s how I feel about Bordeaux. We initially only stopped in the city so that we could rest for an evening in – what we’d heard was –… View Post
This past Friday, my best dude treated me to an incredible small concert at Zebrawoods by School Is Cool, AKA a forerunner for favourite new band of the last few months. The set was amazing, their sounds is fun and just… View Post
November was….a TON of fun. I spent my 5-year anniversary with my main man in London (anniversary dinners at Duck & Waffle and Clos Maggiore?!), saw Queens of the Stone Age, saw some of my extended family, and of course… View Post
