HAPPY WEEKEND

I've read that most people spend their weekends watching TV, shopping, worrying about not having money and dreading the week ahead. I'm not surprised, because not so long ago, I was one of those people. At one point in my life I was doing three jobs, I had no days off, I was really depressed, living in … Continue reading HAPPY WEEKEND

#WEEKENDCOFFEESHARE

  There is a beautiful community of bloggers who participate in #weekendcoffeeshare, which means that every weekend they publish posts about what they would say to their readers if they were sitting down and having coffee. A lot of bloggers reflect on their week, while some of them share their random thoughts, worries, emotional burdens, … Continue reading #WEEKENDCOFFEESHARE

IN THE MEANTIME…

I wrote a post on my favourite products some time ago and I was thinking about doing it on a weekly or monthly basis, but since I'm not really a beauty or a fashion blogger who buys tons of products every month, I decided to do it when I feel like I have something interesting to share … Continue reading IN THE MEANTIME…

MY TRAVEL DIARY: VIENNA

Believe it or not, this is my eighth time in Vienna. So far I've seen it during Christmas time, in the winter, spring and summer, I've already visited all must-see places in the city, but I feel like I could never get enough of it. Like I will never be done with it. As the city … Continue reading MY TRAVEL DIARY: VIENNA

WHEN YOU’RE FEELING LIKE A TREE

When I was 18, I got depressed and for more than 10 years I never really got better. For more than 10 years almost every day was a battle with myself. In the morning, I would wake up and lay in bed fearing the day. During the day, I would walk around carrying the weight … Continue reading WHEN YOU’RE FEELING LIKE A TREE

So with Christmas being just around the corner, I decided to share a list of the things that I’m currently loving and enjoying, in case you really don’t know what to … Continue reading MY CURRENT FAVOURITES

SPICY PUMPKIN SOUP

To me, cooking is art. Passion. Love made visible. It awakens my senses and nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing people I love gathered around the table, eating food that I cooked. At weekends I tend to spend more time in the kitchen and make three-course meals, especially if we are all at home. … Continue reading SPICY PUMPKIN SOUP

FIVE LIFE LESSONS FROM FRENCH PEOPLE

South of France. Barcelona on one side, Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Nice and Monaco on the other, just a short drive away. Breathtaking scenery, stylish people, amazing food and inexplicable, overwhelming joie de vivre. Yes, sometimes I have to pinch myself. Is this place, one of the most visited and dreamed of destinations in the world really … Continue reading FIVE LIFE LESSONS FROM FRENCH PEOPLE

SPEECHLESS

You know that words have always been my thing. Although one of our university professors once told us that, as students of literature, we should never be left speechless, it happens to me quite often. A love song. A good book. Pumpkin soup. The smell of coffee. A beautiful piece of clothing. A soft sweater. Early mornings. … Continue reading SPEECHLESS
