about birth
(realizing i’m writing a lot about kids & co and this is not my intention. anyway, this is and isn’t about them) TL;DR: I’m against home births. so there is this trend (at least in Luxembourg) about home births. they’re not recommended by the doctors, but there are midwives that are on board with this.…

garden updates #3 – late spring
ok it’s may and i’m calling it late spring? maybe because there was 0 spring until now. only rain rain rain and some sand from sahara. i realized last weekend, when i had 1 hour of gardening, that some of my lavenders were dead and gone. there were some gas works late last year and…

Garden updates #2 – early spring
Spring is a bit shy in this area, it’s not too warm, sometimes there’s a lot of rain. So here are some snapshots from today from the garden. The loveliest and most delicate flowers are here – the cute snowdrops have invaded one corner of my garden – I feel that they multiply every year…

Come to yoga with me
The disadvantage of living in France is that you’re never too far away from a croissant. A real, good one. Every weekend four croissants are somehow on our table: two with nutella and two with kinder bueno. How can you resist that? That’s not the point of this article. As I previously said, I started…
