Hello Loves!

We adore mornings, we love the idea of having a fresh start every day. However, week day mornings can be a bit hasty for us. That is why we like to have at least one morning free every week to enjoy it as much as we can. This morning almost always falls on Sunday and we have found ourselves creating a routine for it. Thus, here is our Sunday morning routine: Continue reading

Three self-help books that have actually helped us

 

 

Every book you pick up has its own lesson or lessons, and quite often the bad books have more to teach than the good ones.

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.

A day in Amsterdam

 

Some tourist think Amsterdam is a city of sin, but in truth it is a city of freedom. And in freedom most people find sin.

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

Hello Bibliophiles!

One of our favorite things to collect or purchase are books. We love strolling around in old or contemporary bookshops and try to find as many books as possible. Everytime we enter a bookshop one of us leaves at least with three books… Yes. We might have a slightly bit of a problem. However, you can never have to many books, right? The last couple of months, we’ve collected again some pretty great books and we’d like to share them with you. Continue reading

Hello Bookwurms!

The summer is here and we are nearly done with school. Being done with school, for about two months, means that we will have loads of time to read again!! We actually have many, many books we still want to read. However, we’ve narrowed them down to just a few, which we most definitely want to read during our upcoming summer break. Continue reading
