It’s not secret we love a good house plant. Their green goodness brings positivity and pure ~vibes~ to any room they’re placed in, so why wouldn’t you want one (or ten). I’d say the most common reason people are put off caring for houseplants is they’ve killed them in the past and their leafy ghost […]
I’m not sure if I suffer from insomnia. Maybe I can sleep but I just don’t try hard enough. Maybe I need to actually just lie down and close my eyes for longer than five minutes, than rely on a singular cup of green tea to aid my sleep. I guess I could just be […]
First of all, we love Etsy. What could be better than a place that brings small business owners together, and allows them to sell their products all over the world. For many years we’ve been an advocate of buying local and from independent businesses, but Etsy has allowed us to do that with the ease […]
The millennial generation is overworked to say the least. Almost all of us have an inferiority complex, and with the constant presence of social media we can’t avoid persistently comparing ourselves to our peers. There is no easy route to any profession and the future is full of more uncertainties than ever before. As a […]
Home, a four letter word, home, something outside of a physical context— there is no direct phrase for “going home” in German, there is “gehen nach Hause” or “gehen zu Hause”, both meaning something like “going to house” but it’s more abstract than that, because lately I’ve been nach Hause gegangen to see you with […]
Before going to Berlin I told myself I was going to learn German, even if just a few common phrases to be polite if nothing else. But as I came closer to my trip I’d failed to learn a single word. I may have ceremoniously downloaded duolingo and had a flip through my school German […]
I don’t know about you, but the pressures I feel as a young person in society seem to be forever growing and breathing down my neck until it becomes impossible to sweep them aside. We need a solid career path that brings financial stability as well as actually enjoying our jobs; we get deemed ignorant […]
With so much going off in our lives it becomes hard to ever turn off: from work, social media, life itself, even if just for a second. When I was younger I remembered being able to read a book and become totally immersed in every second of narrative escape. Now I read a book and […]
To celebrate international women’s day we asked you on social media to tell us about your favourite inspirational women. Whether it be an inspiring women from history, a celebrity you admire, or someone you know personally who deserves some recognition we want to hear your stories. “Yeonmi Park was a no-brainer for me when deciding […]
Following on from my previous post, I thought I’d specifically mention four fab brands whilst you continue to curb your unhealthy fast-fashion habit. Hold tight. Vintage Designer Goods: Nordic Poetry I came across one of their two shops whilst mulling around Boxpark Shoreditch last summer. Nordic Poetry is a vintage retailer which offers some gems […]
