Street Food Thursday in Berlin
I wish I were in Berlin tonight so that I could visit Street Food Thursday at Markthalle9 in Kreuzberg again. On my first night in Berlin last week I walked there from my apartment and really really enjoyed it. The relaxed athmosphere, the friendly vendors, the good looking food booths, but above all: the delicious Read article…
Flying high
I'm still on a high from my trip to Berlin. I met so many wonderful people and saw so many amazing things that I'm a bit overwhelmed. Probably I'll need a few days to get back into the groove! Flying from Paris to Berlin looked so different from above than flying from Paris to Stockholm: Read article…
Vive la Différence
Hope you had a great weekend? Mine included lots of laughter, rain, German cupcakes, 6 different languages, too many LemonAids and meeting so many nice people in Berlin.

Yellow Submarine
The name of the paint that I won on Iris' blog C-more makes me want to sing: ♪ Yellow Submarine! It's such a bold and vibrant color: perfect for a little spring project since the weather is so cold and grey. The door of our apartment had this weird lilac blueish color. I don't even Read article…
Weekend inspiration #5
My jungle
Finally I moved my beloved plant collection from their winter storage to the greenhouse! It's my private jungle with palm trees, cactus plants, succulents and agaves. Most of them were cuttings or seeds that I brought home from travels to Portugal, Corsica, Spain and the South of France. Nothing serious but I just really love Read article…
