If you’ve been reading the blog for a while now – and following along on Instagram – then you know that during the last 18 months I have entered a crazy zone. The transition from one child to three in under three years came as a shock to me and, almost literally, turned my world upside down. I didn’t know what I was doing anymore, I often felt scared and I was not feeling like me anymore. Life became a chaos and I got lost in it. In bed every night I would lie awake thinking about one thing: how the fuck am I supposed to be a parent to my kids? It’s funny how some answers just come and find you. I got invited to a Conscious Parenting workshop. It hasn’t changed my life. It’s made it better.

If you’re a fan of collecting bangles, you probably already take great care of them. To help make sure your bangles last a lifetime, though, here are some top tips for looking after them.
We’ve had one of those big ceramic pots on our veranda for over two years now. Inside is a climbing plant – not sure which kind- that quickly managed to cling onto the wall next to it. So when we decided to spray-paint the pot, we knew we wouldn’t be easy. Turns out it wasn’t that hard at all mainly because we had one of those spray paint handle grips. What a life changer. I have always loved spray painting stuff. Frames, pots, glass jars, ornaments and light fixtures. So I know a good spray paint brand when I see one. Enter Pinty Plus. Oh and they have little ones too. You know, for little hands.
I received my first pouch of matcha powder earlier this month from Boost Bio Market and Ev Zin Bio. I’m a big fan of matcha smoothies but other than that I had no idea what to do with it. Enter a good friend, fellow boy mama and all around awesome person, Minako. I first wanted her matcha tea recipe. Then I wanted her matcha parfait recipe. Soon I was receiving photos of mouth-drooling Japanese treats and simple little recipes. So we decided to share and here they are!
Last Saturday night I was sitting on the floor, outdoors, in an music arena, by the water in Faliro, Athens with a beer by my side and not a care in the world. I am about to dance and sing with thousands of people to the rhythms of rock legend, Iggy Pop. I noticed a feeling, the same feeling I always get when I am part of a large crowd at a music festival. Good vibes take on a completely different meaning during long warm summer moments like these. I have been traveling to summer music festivals abroad on and off over the past 8 years and it is an experience I am literally hooked on.
