the very last summer day
My friend Andrea came to see me in the Hague two weeks ago. on what I call the very last summer day. We got so lucky with the weather: definitely T-Shirt weather and sun out all day. Of course we had breakfast at the beach and we’re chillin in the dunes afterwards as you can […]
Gouache Lettering
I made this Gouache Lettering after the Bundestag elections. I was hoping for a bigger change, but I guess that didn’t happen. To my surprise, I wasn’t paralyzed. Bad (global) news can really get me off track sometimes, so I was actually kind of prepared. But seeing how the different parties came together and openly […]
Bye Bremen, Hoi Den Haag
Well, yes. We left the country to chase some adventures in The Hague as expats. The big move happened in may and a lot of things have happened in the meantime. First of all, the kids started school ( yes , my daughter is going to school here with her 4 years ) and daycare. […]
pandemic winter
I stumbled upon these photos from a trip to Wremen on my phone and thought of sharing them with you. It’s been a while since we went there, but I have stopped posting here before a little virus came along. The plan was to make a make over of this website and then, well, start […]
bathroom alternatives
This morning I sketched some bathroom alternatives for less waste. Actually I was thinking about making this a big project and doing a lot of drawings, buuuut since I have been thinking about it too long now, I have come to realize, there isn’t enough time for such a nice project. At least I made […]
illustrating zero waste recipes
Ok, it’s about time to give you another update on our minimal waste journey. Since I started, it has been over 1,5 years. So all the cosmetics in the bathroom are pretty much used up. I started replacing them one by one with zero waste products or selfmade alternatives. Some worked well, some didn’t work […]
Superpower Lettering
When you want to aquire a new lettering technique, you don’t pay attention to what you letter. It’s somehow peculiar, that I come up with the word “Karate” a lot. It’s because I like K’s and A’s I guess. I’ve never done any karate or actually never seen anyone doing it, but to me it […]
Nostalgic ferry rides
nostalgic ferry rides Living in Bremen means we get to enjoy ferry rides quite often. Sometimes it’s just a two minute ride, sometimes longer. But I am always as exited as my two year old. Not too long ago we visited the manmade beach in Bremen Walle called Waller Sand. We came by ferry, which […]
tomato growing business
This year I grew my own tomato plants from seeds. One thing I wanted to do since a long time. And this year I’ll only have tomatoes on the balconys. All other vegetables will be planted in the garden. We have two balconys and one of them is huge with a lot of sun all […]
