After eating lentil burgers and homemade seitan for the last couple of months, it was time to try something else as a meat substitute. For months I’ve seen this recipe on Instagram, but never tried it. Until today and it was yummy! I can’t take credit for this recipe, but I did alter it a … Continue reading Spicy chickpea balls (including recipe)

Dealing with back pain
Since I was about 8 years old I had therapy for my back. I did this until I was 13 -14 years old. I should have kept up with it, but you know being a teenager doesn’t really help. If I knew back then how much it would help me later in life, I maybe … Continue reading Dealing with back pain
Our Skincare Routine
I’ve always been aware of how important it is to take care of your skin. It also helped that my mum took care of her skin. I had a good example. As soon as I could afford it, I bought nice skin creams, and made sure to always remove my make-up before bed. I spent … Continue reading Our Skincare Routine
Japan, the trip that didn’t happen (yet!)
In 2020 we planned a trip to Japan. The plan was to leave on the 1st of April to Osaka and hopefully experience the Sakura Season. This has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember, and finally it was about to happen!!! Yes! A few more weeks to go and … Continue reading Japan, the trip that didn’t happen (yet!)
A night out in your 40’s
A short post today as I felt a bit uninspired the last couple of days and I’m writing this with a terrible headache. Oh, how you’ve got to love getting older. It seemed not that long ago when I could go out, enjoy a few drinks and still be fine the next day. Well, not … Continue reading A night out in your 40’s
The story of a pair of shorts, a summer bag and a small purse
Who would have thought that I was crafty? Not me! A couple of days ago I was looking for a pair of shorts for the summer, but couldn’t find any that I liked. Too short, too tight, too big, wrong color, etc. So I walked back home and realized I still had an old pair … Continue reading The story of a pair of shorts, a summer bag and a small purse
Meat substitutes
As you know, we’ve been trying to adopt a vegetarian lifestyle. Today I want to share our experiences with meat substitutes. A couple of months ago I made my own veggie burgers and they were really nice, but we don’t always want to eat the same, so we had to think of something else. Eggs! … Continue reading Meat substitutes
Support the locals
Whenever we go to a new country or city we love to explore! The motto we live by is ‘pay it forward’, for traveling this means that we want to support local businesses when we visit a new city. We always try to go local. In the first weeks we find a few places we … Continue reading Support the locals
The value of friendship
A short post today, because friendship for me is very simple. What I’ve learned about friendship is that not all of them will last and that’s okay. A couple of years ago, a woman told me that we meet people at a certain moment in our lives, when we have something to learn from each … Continue reading The value of friendship
Travel, work and a pandemic
Years ago I saw a Dutch commercial about a guy working on a tropical beach with his laptop. That looked amazing and I knew I wanted to do that one day. And I did, but it wasn’t the same as what I saw on the commercial! That is why I want to clear a few … Continue reading Travel, work and a pandemic
