I took a two week hiatus from the good ole Gram to get used to my new longer working hours and binge Bridgerton. Am I the only one who thinks that show is a hot mess? It's basically a 1800s costume drama but with taylor swift on violins and the occasional close-up of Rรฉge-Jean Page's butt ๐Ÿ˜ณ I can't help but wonder... what the *bleep* did I just watch? ๐Ÿ˜…

Happy Friday guys! You've made it throgh the second week of 2021 ๐Ÿฅณ If you don't have any plans for the weekend yet, Bridgerton is available on Netflix ๐Ÿ˜‰

Chapter 2020 comes to and end as we turn the page Chapter 2020 comes to and end as we turn the page I want to thank you all for your support this year. ๐Ÿ’—

It was a year of many lows that taught me how to find my highs in the little things. Despite the tough times, there were also plenty of moments filled with friends, coffee & rose wine, little escapes in my own country and... A PUPPY! Thank you all for following along! โœจ

Happy New Year! ๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿพ I don't know what will be written in chapter 2021, but I'm hoping for 365 pages full of love and light for all of us.

Ps: the photos from Valencia, Helsinki and Tallinn were made in 2019 but posted in 2020 ๐Ÿ™ˆ I did not travel abroad this past year.

Fall shows us how beautiful it is to let things go Fall shows us how beautiful it is to let things go ๐Ÿ‚

I haven't been out shooting lately. The last photo on my DSLR is from mid november. It's nearly christmas and I probably should be posting something festive, but I haven't felt inspired to create anything. The holidays feel so weird this year and my christmas spirit never lifted without the usual social gatherings and christmassy outings. Maybe mulled wine and cringe-worthy christmas movies on TV will get me in the right mood! I could watch "Home Alone" for the first time? Or should I go with "Die Hard" so we can settle that debate for once and for all?

Anyway, by lack of festive content, I'm giving you my two favorite detail shots I made this fall ๐Ÿ˜Š
