In 2013 I traveled quite a bit. For work, for my blog, for fun and to visit family & friends. Of course I hope to explore some more in 2014. Already in my agenda: Italy and London. We started the year in Burgundy, France /// and spent a weekend at the beautiful Auberge du Jeu Read article…

The Recollection Antwerp
I love shops where it's not only about products, but also about styling and creating a unique setting. And when shop owners decide to add some greens… you know I'm in 😉 Some of my favorites include HAY House in Copenhagen and La Maison Pernoise in the Provence, but this weekend I discovered a new Read article…
The colors of Antwerp
Our weekend in Antwerp was cold and foggy but also rather colorful! For the first time ever we visited the Botanical gardens with colorful sculptures: The Fashion Museum, MoMu, celebrates its 50th birthday with an exhibition of graduation and recent work of students, including the famous Antwerp6+1. Happy birthday Dear Academie! A = Antwerp I Read article…
Le Palais Bulles
Visiting le Palais Bulles felt a bit like meeting a superstar who turns out to be super easy to approach, but hiding his best side from you. My husband has been in love with bubble houses for ages, and this huge house designed & built by architect Antti Lovag is one of the superstars in Read article…
My favorite Aire de Jugy
I love traveling in my own country. The Oise region is really nice, but nothing makes me happier than driving on the Autoroute du Soleil. Ohhh… the promise of sun, la mer and pine trees in the South of France… ♥ A break at one of the many rest areas along the road makes it Read article…
Domaine du Rayol

Not far from where we were married, located on the most beautiful part of the coast, lays this botanical garden focused on Mediterranean species. As you know, I'm very much into agaves, palm trees and cactus Read article…
Flamingo fever
There was one reason why I wanted to visit the Camargue region during our stay in the South of France: the color pink. Pink flamingos and pink salt flats. I had seen flamingos before and find them so elegant and gracious. And their color: wow! But in October many of them are already on their Read article…
Fall colors in Roussillon
The best thing of a belated summer holiday, is that you have touristic places like the ochre quarries in Roussillon, all to yourself. You can just wander around and be amazed by the colors and textures without any distractions. And that's just what we did. We both visited Roussillon several times before, but how can Read article…
Back home from the South of France
Our 3 weeks in the South of France were super relaxing. We swam in the Mediterranean, hiked in the Alpilles and Estérel mountains, visited some exciting urban jungles and museums, and above all: soaked up all the sunshine we could. I wish I could share scents through my blog, because the Provence and Côte d'Azur Read article…
