Springtime: a hint of mexico and a bit of grunge
Going on a bike tour with a t-shirt only showed me: springtime temperature finally arrived. Nature evolves and so does my wardrobe who got two new members to celebrate spring…
My springtime favorites:
1. Glow in the dark mini skateboardy by Penny Skateboards Australia
2. “Khalo” Shirt by Sessún
3. Skirt by Soeur Paris

Amsterdam at home
Nordish taste for tummy and eye
1. Very rare and undamaged Tucan-Lamp: Ferrari Design bought at Wonderwood
2. Wallpaper Amsterdam: first input for my truffel nose
3. and 5. Clipper Tea: design meets taste meets organic and fairtrade. My dip: Lemon/Ginger
4. Stropwaffels: I love the classical Dutsch design of the tin. Inside: yummy waffels filled with honey.
6. De Ruijter choclate bits: try them with warm self cooked vanilla Pudding!
7. Dorsett Honey Granola: I always looked for granola in Germany but could not find any. This delicous müsli has lots of pecan nuts and sunflower seeds in it. I love the artsy design of the packaging. The pakcages lighten up my storage room now…
8. Tea Towel: I love the morbid charme on this classical fabric. Actually the “Towel” is used as table cloth in my kitchen. It is funny to watch the irritating view of my friends when seeing it. It is this: look twice gaze to be sure…who nows maybe the cocroaches go in my storage room at night and eat my granola.

Fotoshooting in the Forest
Winter is definitely over: Got my first sun-burn at the shooting! Another sign for spring: waking up on a saturday at seven a.m with lots of energy and bees under your bum. Everything inside is screaming: go out and enjoy the sun! I did!

Amsterdam
Discovering Amsterdam via bike is the best and only way to discover Amsterdam and its neighbourhoods easily. Compare the prices and rather go to a small bicycle shop where you get authentic, not tourist branded organge Holland bikes. A Dutsch Person told me: only tourists walk. Well, I am an experienced cycler, but Amsterdam is really advanced. I felt like in a Computer game with millions of barriers to take eachs second…But it is fun! Try to cyle the small ”Grachten” though as it gives you the possibility to look at the cute little houses and Shops on the left and right. Amsterdam has more than 10.000 little Shops – the only city I know where you are not confronted with the big Labels and anonymous Shopping malls all the time..
I love looking in the houses of other people. Amsterdam is the perfect spot for this hobby. Is not there a voyeur in all of us?
Nature meets art: Great Exhibition by Artist Judith de Vries at hutspot. If you are searching for something to lighten up your home…You can leave your media naranja in the great cafe. Everything you sit on, drink out of and see on the walls is for sale.
Going wild in Amsterdam…
Mid century desgin classics at wonderwood
Friday next: The Dutch People seem to love the cafe in the shop concept. Nice contemporary Nordish design by hay and co..
Vondelpark: Great escape in the middle of the City.
