What is one thing that never fails to inspire you?
Books … cookbooks, children’s books, books about design and Japanese craft books
And other peoples handmade work, I’m always in awe when I see the amazing things people can create with their hands, like a painting, furniture, something knitted, crafted or a simple drawing …
How are you currently incorporating your inspirations into your blog/designs/art?
By showing the things I mentioned above on both my blogs and share my passion for the artists’ work with my readers.
What is your favorite indulgence?
A gin+tonic on our balcony with some snacks together with Rik and our son playing inside …
What are three creature comforts you can't live without?
Applebutter on a wholegrain sandwich, something typically Dutch and preferably together with some very mature cheese … my family always bring lots of cans when they are visiting
Our bed, I love watching a movie or some tv in our bedroom
Sunshine, living in a tropical country like Malaysia makes me a happier person, I really need sunshine and lot’s of light, although I love my home country, the Netherlands and particularly Amsterdam very much, I always had problems with the long rainy and grey days.
Do you have a personal motto or words that you live by (quotes and song lyrics are fine too)?
Someone once said : Go confidently in the direction of your dreams … live the life you’ve imagined ... and I try to live like this. And my best friend, husband and lover always says to me live life to the fullest, you only live once and I love that sentence.
