THIS GIVES ME NEW ENERGY:

Swimming, hiking, Yin Yoga, meditation, and… corn cakes with chocolate.

Why?

Because it brings me peace and thus creates space for new energy.

And those corn cakes with chocolate are just delicious…

THIS IS WHERE I GET INSPIRATION FROM:

Blank paper, a pencil, and just start writing or sketching… letting it flow. With nostalgic music in the background.

Why?

Because being busy, drawing, writing, and putting on paper what’s in your head always opens something new. Creating something results in a creation, beautiful or not… there is space to not think too much for a while.

THE PLACE FOR ME TO RECHARGE:

In the forest, in every season. In the water. At home.

Why?

Peace, green, red, orange, colors, life, nature, grounding, freedom, breathing space, silence. Letting go.

MY FAVORITE SEASON:

Winter

Why?

The cold brings new energy. I love the snow, all the holidays in December, and most of all Christmas. The early darkness, the calm the morning brings because everyone is still asleep. And warm drinks with cinnamon and cocoa! Thick winter sweaters, house socks, pajamas, candles. Warm and cozy.
