California memories
On my way to San Francisco to attend my friend’s wedding and it feels like going home! I know I’ve only lived there for two years but I have so many great memories. I’ve explored, enjoyed and savoured my time there and if you’re curious about what I was up to, you can check out…

Ferry ride
Sunday funday… with a trip to Hoboken, a city in New Jersey, most famous for being Frank Sinatra’s birthplace. It was very hot today so I thought it would be nice to switch up the means of transportation from the sticky (and stinky) subway to the ferry with outdoor seating, skyline views and a fresh…

The big reveal
Curious to see my creation from the paint and sip event last night? Well, let me tell you: a new artist is born! Just joking, but for my first attempt, I think it turned out quite cool. Luckily, art is subjective and, in this case, very abstract… I really had an great time, met some…

Paint and sip
I thought it’s time to try something new! So I signed up for a painting class 🎨 The idea is to get creative whilst enjoying a glass of wine and munch a slice of pizza (can it get even more ‘New York’!?) Super curious to see what the evening will bring but so far, the…

Sunday stroll
First time I’ve ventured outside Manhattan and explored Greenpoint. The northern tip of Brooklyn has nice vibes, cool restaurants and amazing views of the Manhattan skyline ☺️ The area was originally farmland and many European settlers landed on this strip of American soil which they referred to as the lush, tree covered tip of land…

Bird’s-eye view of Manhattan
I was so lucky to get the opportunity to do a helicopter flight over manhattan… a truly one of a kind experience! The tour provider promised spectacular views from above and an extraordinary adventure. And they did not disappoint! Here’s a little teaser. I will share some additional snippets over the coming weeks, but if…

Popcorn
If you followed me in San Francisco, you know that I like to go to the movies and enjoy a big tub of popcorn. Having some trouble getting used to the buttery, salty stuff you get in the US, I’m always trying to find a sweet option. Which is difficult in itself as most sweet…

My new logo
It’s done! My new logo is ready and I hope you’ll love it as much as I do! I worked with the same young artist and kept the general design of my Josephine in San Francisco one but made it more New York-style. Check out the different elements – all things I attribute to this…

Final night…
… in temporary housing! Today flew by as it was moving day with so many things to do! So lucky that everything went smoothly: the movers arrived on time, were friendly and helpful, and most importantly, all items made it undamaged across the country from sunny California with only a few scratches here & there…

Washington Monument
As promised, the obelisk honouring George Washington, the first President of the Untied States, gets a separate post from my quick day trip to Washington D.C. With 555 feet / 169 meters it was the world’s tallest man made structure for a few years before the Eiffel Tower in Paris claimed that accolade. And it’s…
