Iris van Herpen ～ Roots of Rebirth Preview For me nothing comes close to the feeling of wonder I get from Iris’ designs and it’s so interesting (and satisfying) to read her inspiration and see so many threads that connect to the themes and concepts that I’ve recently been learning about. Here she cites mycelium and the Wood Wide Web as influences to this collection – I can really…

So, 2020? I think we can all agree that so far we’ve been in for a very unusual ride! On one hand I’m feeling so very lucky to be living where we are – a lot of the factors which made Villach a bit of an adjustment for me when we moved here are what has made it one of the best places to be right now. We are…

Here you can find some of my most used design and blogging tools – I’ll be updating this list whenever I come across anything I think needs to be added so be sure to Pin or bookmark it so you can always come back!

Having no internet here has been a big obstacle to my work – however, today is internet day! Hooray!! The man is here fitting a cable as I type so I figured now…

This summer (2018) we visited the most perfect island – the land of milk and honey – and amazing avocados, pineapples, seafood, lakes, hills… Thanks to its location in the Atlantic archipelago of the Azores, São Miguel is an incredibly fertile volcanic island. Everything we ate there was incredible, and everything that grows there was thriving. It almost felt like we had visited the place where weather was made; we…

Understandably, the first question most people ask when I tell them I’m leaving my (lovely) job and moving to Austria is ‘What will you do there?’, pretty much do I have a job lined up there or am I just winging it! Well, we’re moving for Alessandro’s job – and as my German is not yet at waitress level I’ll be working on freelance and designs full time. I’m really…

So it’s the end of my last full calendar month in the UK and the beginning of my last few weeks in work – the ‘new me’ is all trained up, and things are really starting to get into gear for the big move. In just under two months I’ll be moving from Manchester, UK to the small town of Villach in southern Austria, along with my boyfriend – the…
