Corner View: Anything Goes

Thanksgiving is not a widespread tradition in Holland (yet), but I love everything about it! I think being thankfull (sometimes really easy & sometimes with some effort..) is such a big part of being happy. And there is no better way to celebrate that than with good food! What do you think that I should serve? Any tips? Please share!

Yesterday or Autumn II

Babysitting with grandma, grandpa & three aunts (me& my sisters) at my place. Enjoyed every minute of it.

Autumn

The trick is not to let the cold scare you. To go for a walk regularly. To see what an everchanging piece of Art nature is. To enjoy seasonal food. To add cinnamon to your coffee.

Walk of Liberty

Yesterday it was 'Liberation Day' here . May 1945 was the end of world war II in the Netherlands. Freedom. So good to not take it for granted. The stories of my grandparents are still in the back of my mind. To give it a broader meanig the day is also called 'day of freedom'. Being free is not just to 'not live in war. For me it's also being free from expectations, being free to express yourself, being free from worries and so on. So when I felt those expectations and worries pressing on my shoulder yesterday evening, I decided to take a little liberty walk. The sun was shining, the flags were still hanging and I felt.. free.
