If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw that I was in Amsterdam the other day. I met up with my blog pals Deepa and Giova for coffee and pancakes and a stroll around de Pijp. They know me well and took me to Sla, because it's a true Urban Jungle Bloggers hotspot. Ever Read article…

Greens at Maison et Objet 2015
After a particularly busy week, I spent an afternoon at Maison et Objet in Paris this weekend.
