Hello Loves!

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve written anything here. But we are back. Today we’ve got three self-help books for you that have actually helped us. Now to be fair, we were (and still are) a bit sceptical about the term “self-help books.” In our opinion any book can be a self-help book, as long as it helps you and maybe teaches you something. However these books that are already connected to the term “self-help” have opened our eyes more than we ever expected when we started reading them. Hence, why we wanted to share them with you.

Hello Loves!

We were in Amsterdam a couple of months back and we absolutely loved it. We had never been there before and our first experience with the city was very pleasant. We do think it was quite crowded, however we tried to see past that and to do as much as we were able to. We visited some museums, went shopping, went out for dinner and just wandered around in this unique city. Continue reading
