Aachen Christmas Market

Aachen Christmas Market

How’s that for the world’s least inspiring blog post title? Pretty great, I’d say. Truth be told, I was nowhere near a German Christmas Market this year. Helsinki? Yes. Tallinn? Also yes. But Germany? No. Don’t be fooled by the ‘2019’ on the gluhwein cups. It really was 2018. These photos are from last year when we spend the whole two and a half hours in Aachen before fleeing the scene because it was just too crowded to be enjoyable. I didn’t feel like I had enough ‘content’ …

6-day Tenerife Road Trip (Part I)

6-day Tenerife Road Trip (Part I)

Tenerife. To most people that means 320 sunny days a year, yellow sand beaches and all-inclusive resorts as far as the eye can see. I’m going to give you none of that. Instead, I am going to show you sides of Tenerife you never knew about. If eerie mist, black beaches and breathtaking mountain views sound good to you, than you might want to read along. It’s going to be good, I promise. Since I always talk too much and am an avid photographer, I have to split this travel guide into two posts. In today’…

Connecterra Maasmechelen with Fitbit| AD

Connecterra Maasmechelen with Fitbit| AD

I want to start this post by stating that the Fitbit Versa shown in the photos was kindly gifted to me at a press event. I was not asked or payed to write a blog post about it. You don’t have to travel far to see beautiful places. Connecterra is an excellent example of that. This large stretch of land was once a coal mining site, but has been turned into a national park after the mine closed in 1987. Overt the years Connecterra has grown to become an astounding national park with lakes and hilltops from where you …

Madrid Photo Diaries

Madrid Photo Diaries

You guys cannot believe how happy I am to finally be writing this blog post. It’s been a long time in the making. It’s been two years since I went to Madrid with my friend E and it was my last trip of 2017. I’m SUPER STOKED to finally be finished with my blog content from 2017! It was a spontaneous idea to travel to Madrid. We were sipping coffee after an outfit shoot and it somehow came up. I had put Madrid on my travel list for 2017 and the years was nearly ending without any …

La Vida Dulce in Seville

La Vida Dulce in Seville

Okay, I’ll start this blog post off with a confession. I wasn’t anywhere near Seville this summer. Or this year even. My hair that is still long in the photos will give that away too. I visited the southern Spanish city in June of 2017, together with my boyfriend, who had been dying to take me there since we started dating in 2009. I just didn’t feel it. Spain, I mean. I never had a thing for “the South”, as we Europeans like to call it. I’m a Northern girl at heart. …

A Mini Guide to Paris

A Mini Guide to Paris

Hi there, welcome back! I hope you guys are having a lovely week so far. I missed posting yesterday because it was a holiday (Mothersday) here in Belgium and I got so caught up in house work that I completely forgot to finish this blog post. But, here we are. Better late than never, am I right? Well, this post *really* is a latecomer. I’m throwing it way back here, back to a time where I was closer in age to 20 than 30, my hair was still long and I proudly wore leggings as pants out in public (apparently,&…
