It's 10 a.m. on a Monday. The once elusive Dutch Sun seems to have found its way through my windows on to my bed. Not only are the sheets dappled in parts with the bright and cheery Sun but a part of my face is enveloped in it too. My head hurts and I definitely don't want to open my eyes. The birds seem to go about their business as usual I can tell. Either they know that the human race across the world has shut shop and returned home and they rejoice or they are oblivious and they rejoice. Either way, I am not really ready to start looking at the silver lining of this lockdown just yet. Is t ..read more

Let's make something clear at the onset. This blog post is not intended to be fact heavy or loaded on ominous statements. There are tons of great resources out there doing that job and doing it wonderfully. This is mostly me thinking out loud and talking about how working with Sui (an eco-conscious with not just their garments but also kind work practices, label from India) might have given rise to a lot of questions in my mind that I will hopefully be able to answer as I go (grow) along.  Instead of throwing around words like sustainability and eco-conscious, I decided to bring in someone wi ..read more

Okay who am I kidding, we all turned 30 and we finally made our big, fat European holiday happen and we did a 5 day trip to Budapest. As a result of which, you just got lucky and on a *legit* not the standard 'a lot of you have been asking me...' category of demand, find below my suggestions and recommendatio ..read more

As tourists, we tend to stereotype and classify within boxes, a lot of destinations that have a lot to offer. As someone who lives in Amsterdam and used to live in Den Haag, I have made my fair share of touristic trips to Delft. Always sold as a one-day trip where you can pick the best Delft Blue pottery and visit the church where Vermeer is buried, over time I began to observe that Delft was that and a lot more. Sure, like most Dutch towns a lot of its beauty is concentrated on its beautiful canals and waterways. And sure, the delft blue pottery factory is charming in the most obvious way an ..read more

The title of the blog post is intentionally a little cut and dry. While I take immense pride in my extremely emotional self, I wouldn't exactly know where to begin if I had to pen down a sentimental post about leaving this city. Plus it cannot hurt to actually sit down and assimilate all that living here in Den Haag for the last one year has taught me. So if you live outside the Netherlands and are moving here soon, or already have, then this might be what you are looking for. I wouldn't lie, this might not be entirely applicable in another city but the general advice might still do you good ..read more
