What a long time it’s been since the last Weekly Reads! But guess what, I am back, and this time back with fresh energy. Just returned from a two week long holiday – this is the first time I take a two week holiday as until now we usually only took one week at a time – and oh, it […]

I took a little break from Instagram and the blog for the past few weeks –  probably it’s been almost a month. I don’t specifically follow U.S. news that closely on the regular, but the events from the past months have been shocking and heartbreaking to say the least. Rightfully, social media amplified them and I don’t think a single soul […]

This week has been such a blessing, I mean who doesn’t love a three day work week and a four-day long weekend? We had such a good time relaxing, walking around the city and just soaking in the sun and the good weather – at least for the most part. Also, I am so proud of myself because I put […]

This week was more exciting than usual because the beautiful dresses I ordered from the Johanna Ortiz x H&M collection arrived. I already wore one for a walk around the block and I am obsessed with it – pictured below. On top of that, add that we had our first reasonably priced Michelin star meal – take out from a Thai […]

It’s been another long weekend in Berlin, and I love it. April/May is the time when I enjoy working in Berlin as it’s when we have all the public holidays. The rest of the year is rather dry but I’ll take it. Even though I really enjoyed the weekend, I must say that I’ve also had quite a productive week. […]

Welcome to the first May Weekly Reads! I can’t believe that May is here already; it makes me think that we are almost halfway through the year whereas I barely felt the first four months going by. Oh, 2020, what a year to live in! Nonetheless, we’ve had a lovely long weekend and I am quite excited that the next […]

This week has been rather uneventful. I am happy to have managed to squeeze in quite a few workouts – four to be more precise – and that gives me hopes that I can be an active person again. We use the Beat81 online classes – I used to attend the classes offline and I have to say the guys […]

I have skipped the previous week of Weekly Reads because we spent the weekend celebrating the birthday of the man – which despite the quarantine, we managed to make it fun and even a bit social with some video calls and drop by visits by our window – and I could not bring myself to finishing the reads in time. […]

Not too much novelty in my life during the past week. I have been working pretty much non stop. I had a major deliverable on Thursday – which went pretty well! – so I spent the week glued to my desk chair. Even with all of that, I keep being so grateful that I am able to work from home […]

It’s been a full week of working from home and practising social distancing, and to be honest, I am enjoying this work from home time. I have shared in an Instagram post why I am wholeheartedly embracing & enjoying these times. First of all, I am fully aware that we are so blessed to be able to work from home […]

Last week the whole world felt the scale of the havoc caused by COVID-19 and a lot of countries started taking serious measures by closing down offices and shutting non-essential businesses such as shops, bars or restaurants. We were already working from home most of the previous week as a precaution, but as of last Friday, our whole company is […]

Not much happened last week but the week went as expected. The start was pretty busy in terms of work and required a couple of late work nights while the second part of the week I spent it working from home, which served as a reminder that it can be both good and bad. On the one hand, I enjoy […]

This past week has been quite uneventful. I am looking forward to my visit home at the end of April – can’t count the days fast enough – and I am also quite excited for spring to arrive. I can feel the general mood brightening up and the sun showing up every day a little bit more and I am […]
