I know we won't really look back at 2020 thinking "What a great year!" but if we look at how much we learnt from it, I would say it wasn't such a bad year in the end. As today is (finally?) the last day of the year, I thought it was time to reflect and... Continue Reading →
Several countries in the world have been going through multiple lockdowns this year due to the pandemic, taking away people's freedom by limiting social gatherings (among other things). When I discuss the situation with people around me, it becomes quite clear not everyone copes the same way. How come? I think we find isolation more... Continue Reading →
Let's face it, we're in this situation partly because we haven't taken care of our planet well enough so far.

Earlier this year my fiancé and I were travelling. We were in New Zealand when the pandemic was officially becoming a worldwide problem.... Continue Reading →
I would have never described myself as someone anxious by nature. I always saw anxiety as a form of weakness. A couple of years ago, one of my friends suddenly cancelled all the upcoming plans we had together, including a weekend in Iceland. She said she was going through a lot of anxiety and panic...

I've been waiting for this documentary to be released for a while... It finally got available on Netflix yesterday! As a nature lover, I couldn't wait any longer to watch it. I'll tell you why you should watch it too. David Attenborough's life is fascinating. He was born at the right moment to be able... Continue Reading →
We would all agree 2020 is not the best year we've ever had...
