Let's pick up where I left (cIick for part 1) : stuck on Vestmannaeyjar waiting for the morning ferry to leave, or not… We were lucky, the weather was good enough to sail back to the main land, although the waves were just as high as the first time (ugh!). The bus driver hurried us Read article…

Wally says hi!
A sunny morning at Studio Sapique: Wally says hi! Hope you'll all have a great week wherever you are!
Rose Revisited
As of next week my stepdaughter will be here at Studio Sapique! This photo shows what she looked like when we just met in 1999. She's proudly showing me her new Pikachu hand puppet which I made for her. It became her favorite and soon looked loved & greyish. My role as a stepmom is Read article…
Styloise: Sandra
Around lunchtime I spotted Sandra who was about to grab a sandwich with some friends. She's a desktop publisher (and aspiring webdesigner & photographer!) from Gouvieux. She moved to live in the Oise only 1 year ago and absolutely loves it! Her favorite place in the Oise is the forest of Gouvieux where she likes Read article…
Vintage Sapique 6
Remember the vintage neon letters in our guestroom that deserved a blogpost on their own? Well here it goes. When we settled in our village in France 10 years ago, I fell in love with the signage of an abandoned restaurant nearby. The typography was so beautiful! During the renovation of the restaurant many years Read article…
Back to… Iceland part 1
So far, 2012 has been filled with quite a bunch of short trips. For fun (London!), sad (a cremation), exciting (The Hive) and happy (a wedding!) reasons. But only a few more months before we go on a longer trip. As "everybody" is going on holidays soon, I thought it would be nice to look Read article…
The French Water Lilies
One of the surprises on our short break in Provence was the discovery of this small lake with beautiful waterlillies. We started our walk at the lake of Mormoiron at the base of the Mont Ventoux. Through the surrounding forests & beautiful AOC Ventoux vineyards we reached the top of a hill from where we Read article…
Humanoid Arnhem
One of my favorite Dutch fashion brands is Humanoid. They have been around for over 30 years and their identity just feels familiar without screaming for attention. The fabrics they use are gorgeous, soft and easy to wear. It's a pity I cannot wear any wool (sooo itchy!), because in the winter they have the Read article…
Styloise: Guy
Impossible to miss this smiling man with the hat in the streets of Creil. Guy was coming home from his work as a swing manager at Mc Donalds in the Val d'Oise department. Even after more than 15 years at Mc Donalds, his favorite place to eat is still Mc Donalds (the one in Saint Read article…
