Happy 2017! I wish you all a year in which you can turn dreams into reality. A year that allows you to become, be or remain who you are, a year to tell what’s to be told and to give what should be given. And hopefully this will automatically lead […]

Picture this….. …a tropical beach….. …where the sound of the surf mixes with the screaming of monkeys and undefined exotic birds. Where hermit crabs climb palm trees as if it’s their daily routine. Where 50 shades of jungle green blend flawlessly with all the shades of sea blue a human […]

Ik schreef al eens eerder over de instant-winter:“Vroeger werden winters dan ook rustig opgebouwd. Eerst een beetje kalmpjes kwakkelen, wat vriezen…wat dooien. ….het eerste ruitenkrabben, een hoopgevend sneeuwpopje en wat voorzichtige elfstedenkoorts, afgewisseld met een ontmoedigend dooiaanvalletje…..….maar dat was vóór de uitvinding van de Instant Winter.” Wekenlange winters met sneeuwpoppen […]

As soon as this Army of Cuteness arrives, the most fanatical birder goes “awwwwwwww”.Bold loitering spontaneously share their sandwiches, a homeless worriedly counts whether they are as many as yesterday.   2.
