Things I’ve loved this month…

This month’s favourite hairdo. The advantages of growing my hair to donate it is having more hairdo options.

Finally trying this Balls&Glory thing and realising it is actually pretty glorious indeed

Kroketje uit de muur

Forest walks in Tervuren

The cutest (and most deliciously nutritious) breakfast in Eindhoven

The sky on a very very very very very early Monday morning in Bruges’ train station

Trying to take a photo of a ladybug and accidentally catching it in its great escape

Fall colours

Hearing one of my favourite authors discuss his new book and the process of writing

And getting him to sign my book!

This rainbow to introduce the weekend

Finishing a first drawing in Illustrator. Proud moment.

Slowly falling in love with Brussels

Taking some time to relax and have a nice cuppa tea

Fresh flowers and the sunlight that hits them perfectly as I wake up

Donuts in delicious flavours at COCO Donuts Brussels and coming up with a new category for my blog: #HOTSPOT

Dressing up as 99 Luftballons for a housewarming party

Making a real life instagram wall at home with pictures that I took during travels

Red lipstick and Sunday walks to the book and flower market in Ghent

Another day, another book market, this time with an even nicer view and a sunnier day

Until next month,

Geliefd hout

Geliefd hout. Of: de wereld een beetje mooier maken, letter voor letter.

“If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller’s felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn’t exist, and I have tried everything that does.”
― Jonathan Safran Foer, Everything Is Illuminated
