this was 2018

dear readers, The quickening pace of firework bangs in the background is telling me it's almost time. I've said it before but I'm having a hard time comprehending the fact that the end of the year has already come. To be honest, I'm in a strange state of mind right now - have been for …

she is one!

hello friends, oh my gosh: as of today my baby niece Winter is officially not a baby anymore - she is one! Exactly one year ago she was born, on the last day of fall. I have loved being an auntie so far so much, it really is something else. Seeing her grow bigger so …

paris

bonjour, a bit over a week ago my dear friend lynn and I went on a super short trip to Paris. We left in the middle of the night and tried our best to sleep a bit on the bus, which wasn't very easy, as some of you may know. After a long drive we …

an ode to my father

hi guys. to cut to the chase right away: I might have mentioned before that my dad is no longer around. To make a long story short: he passed away five years ago on September 28th. Obviously this day was hard on all of us last week, but there was one silver lining. As he …

new moon, new ring

it had become Saturday. The seventh day we spent on our beloved campsite on the Danish countryside. Five years ago, we arrived here for the very first time, having been together for only six months and unknowing this would become our little happy place for years to come.

bye twenty five

Hello sweeties. Today is my birthday. I'm not gonna lie, turning 26 is making me a whole lot sentimental. I don't quite know why exactly, but it feels like some sort of ending to an amazing, free, careless era of being young. I'm still young of course but you know what I mean. Right..? Anyway. …

travel: copenhagen

hi sweeties! After only one day at home and my Dublin-suitcase barely unpacked, it was already time to fly out to the next location: Copenhagen! This, being one of the favorite cities I've ever visited, was something I looked forward to for quite some time. Well... at least since the last time I went there. Even …
