Not ok!

Today was a cold day here AND it was raining. I  fu**ing refuse to believe that summer is over. How can it be? It is only the beginning of August. So depressing! 


NOTE TO SELF: Move to a warmer climate! This is not acceptable!

Good night! Dream of palm trees and cocktails by the pool! :) XOXO Nicky ♡ 

BIG LOVE

♡♡♡You may hold my hand for a while, but you hold my heart forever. ♡♡♡

Have a lovely sunny day! XOXO Nicky ♡

My bohemian spirit

We have begun to renovate the apartment & come a long way. Since the apartment is still in chaos we are spending a few weeks at our family’s place. We are living out of our suitcases and leading a very bohemian lifestyle moving from one place to another. We've lived out of our suitcases before; that's a given with our passion for traveling. Once we spent 6 month in Asia witch was incredible but also problematic at times. So far I’m enjoying this experience all though it does present some problems. It is nice to spend quality time with loved once, eating breakfasts together, cooking together and so on. I don’t mind living this way because I see myself as a modern day Bohemian-Hippie anyway. Many would disagree since I also love luxury, which is a contradiction I know :) But I’m super creative, peace loving, poetic, and open-minded. I rejected conventions and value my freedom above all else and live each day in wonder of all the beauty in world.

I also discovered, that we need much less to live on than we usually think. I’m trying to remember that right now, as I contemplate the interior design in our newly renovated apartment. I do miss my routines and my organized closet but I welcome this experience that has altered my perception and making me see things in a different light.

Wish you a great, insightful week! XOXO Nicky ♡

Need tranquillity

Life is very stressful right now. A lot of work related problems and irritations, upcoming renovations of the whole apartment and some other personal problems that I don’t feel getting into. Feel as if I have too much going on and I need to "get off" the merry-go-round or I’m going to hit the wall. Somehow I need to slow down and detox my mind from the information overload. I guess I could take a relaxing massage, but don’t really know how to find the time. Anyhow my primer priority should be ME right now and I guess I will try to focus on getting back in balance. This weekend I will get a lot of rest! My plan for Sunday is to have a late breakfast in bed, surround my self with flowers, books and scented candles and just be. Saturday even in this harsh winter weather I want to go outside and get some fresh air, I think it will do me some good.

Slowing down

Right now my life is very hectic, not at all what I’m use to. I hate early mornings and I hate to rush. However sometimes we all need to compromise and right now I’m compromising, something that I’m not very good at. I guess you could say that I’m eccentric. I make up my own rules as I go along and don’t try to fit into the norm created by society. I have always been good at listening to my own intuition and chose a path that feels right even if it doesn’t seems right. Soon life will get back to normal…well normal for me:) Its going to feel wonderful to get back to my old routines with lots of time to myself, plenty of sleep and the luxury to chose how and with whom I spend my time.

“Your life is nothing but the time you got. A waste of time is destruction of life. Time well and wisely spent is life grandly lived. Life is time! “
